On Mondays episode of Hart of Dixie entitled One Last Chance Zoe and Joel have Vivian’s son Harley over for a sleepover, while Vivian and Wade spend time. Joel and Zoe have looked at houses to rent and get questioned by Harley about not having a house. However, with Harley’s questioning and faking a stomachache, they take him home interrupting Wade and Vivian’s intense make out session. Wade tells Zoe she got played by and eight year old.
Our favorite mayor Lavon Hayes has gathered the citizens of Bluebell to help him convince the Lieutenant Governor to name the town a Historic Town, which would then stop the merger between Bluebell and its rival town Fillmore.
With Dash Dewitt acting as the Lieutenant, Lavon does a test run walking with him through the town. The test run goes horribly as everyone hasn’t memorized what to say or that what can be categorized as a “historic moment” or “history” doesn’t actually pertain to U.S History.
While Zoe and Joel are actually supposed to be helping Lavon, she asks him if she could ditch the acting in order to go to her Aunt Winifred’s barbeque. Since Wade would be there too, Lavon is happy to let Zoe go, claiming that she and Wade wouldn’t be around to cause drama. However Drama comes and it comes from Shelby.
Shelby being eight months pregnant is walking into Bricks office when she see’s a picture of the Lieutenant. She rushes off back home and soon we see Annabeth coming into the house. Thinking that Shelby called because of an actual emergency Annabeth asks what’s wrong. Shelby just wants food and accidently lets it slip that she can’t go out because the Lt. governor would see her. Annabeth wonders why and then Shelby tells her that she and the Lt. Governor had a one-night stand and it resulted in her getting pregnant. Annabeth asks Shelby if he knows and when Shelby says no, Annabel tells her she should tell him. Shelby is stubborn and thinks he doesn’t need to know, but Annabeth tells her if she would be able to face her child when they start to ask about their father.
At Zoe’s Crazy Aunt Winifred’s, Zoe tries to talk to her aunt. Except, Aunt Winifred hates New Yorkers. She’s dated two New Yorkers, and has decided to hate all of them. When talking to her doesn’t work she looks at Wade who is with Harley and they switch places, talking up the other like they promised each other. Harley had earlier threatened that Cecil; his salamander would kill Wade in his sleep if he didn’t break up with Harley’s mom. Zoe tries to talk to Harley about Wade, although she ends up agreeing with Harley about Wade, she also opens up and tells him how loyal and friendly is. And how Wade can make great forts. Wade tells Aunt Winifred that although Zoe can make mistakes, and comes up with these horrible plans, she does it out of her heart because she cares about the person. Aunt Winifred than talks to Zoe and Wade builds a fort for Harley.
Wade tosses Harley’s backpack aside and Cecil escapes. Zoe, Wade, and Vivian look for Cecil. When they can’t find him and Harley starts to blame himself with his Aunt Winifred behind him muttering about how Cecil is free, Wade starts to try and tells Harley that he lost Cecil. Zoe steps in though and tells Harley that she lost Cecil, which she looked in his bag for chapstick and Cecil ran out. Harley’s reply, “I hate you”. Aunt Winifred then starts to hate Zoe again and tells Zoe that she just lost the house she was going to rent out to them.
Zoe and Vivian go buy a new Salamander. Wade tells Harley that it was really him who lost Cecil and not Zoe’s. Zoe and Vivian come back claiming they found Cecil in the woods nearby. Wade smiles, Zoe and Vivian leave and Harley says that the salamander he is holding isn’t Cecil. He them says that Cecil 2 doesn’t like him either.
Back in Bluebell the LT. Governor doesn’t seem all that interested in Bluebell being a historic town. At last not until Tom Long comes along (ignoring Lavon who doesn’t want him to ay anything) and tells the Lt. Governor about how Andrew Jackson had come through Bluebell and used his families toilet; that his grandmother had Andrew Jackson carve his name. Apparently that is historic.
Later on when the Lt. Governor is sitting with Lavon and Annabeth at the Mayor’s Plantation he is willing to sign off to make the Bluebell a Historic Town in order to stop the merger. Of course, right when Annabeth hands him three pens to choose from, Shelby comes in and looks at the Lt. Governor. Shelby introduces herself and asks the Lt. governor if he remembers her. He answers by naming the motel they slept at eight months ago. Shelby mentions Vodka and Tequila, and then he realizes that she is carrying his child. Shelby tells him that she doesn’t expect child support or anything; she just thought that he should now, thanks to Annabeth. The Lt. Governor is so shocked and he downs his glass of what I assume to be rum. He just stays sitting silently. When Lavon and Annabeth check on him, if he needs anything, he asks for Shelby’s address.
We see Shelby talking to Brick on how she told the Lt. Governor. She states that she is moving to Montgomery with him so he can be with their child (whose sex she still doesn’t know). Brick is okay with it, but we can tell he will miss her.
In the Rammer Jammer, Lavon thanks the citizens of Bluebell for helping him try and save the town. As he is about to give bad news, the Lt. Governor walks into the Rammer Jammer, saying that he was so caught up in the news of having a baby and leaving that he forgot to sign the papers that would make Bluebell a Historic Town. He signs them leaves and the town celebrates hugging one another.
George and Lynly break up due to Lynly having burned some of Tansy's hair and George wouldn't believe Lynly when she said it was an accident.Lynly also believes that he wasn't over Tansy. They did break up on good terms.
Joel tells Zoe that they can rent the house next to Crickett and Stanley who sing all the time. Zoe hears them singing and says they can rent the termite house. Joel says buy, they will buy the house because it for sale and rent.
