In Too Much to Ask, Misty tries to get Lacey to calm down when she is freaking out about everything she has to do. She later talks to outcast Skylar and he tries to get her to have everyone forgive him about what happened in the previous episode. She tells him she would try and does, but doesn't get any more support for him so she gives up on him. She informs Charlie that his fight with Skylar is all over the internet and is weirded out when Lacey comes and talks to everyone while she is high. Lindsay calls for her assistance in the bathroom trying to help a very high Lacey and they both wonder why she got high.

In Get Back, Mr. Fisk wants for Lindsay and Misty to spend more time around Lacey and find out if she has a drug problem or not. Misty is a bit hesitant, but Lindsay wants to have a slumber party with her. When they talk to her about it, Lacey refuses and Misty doesn't seem so upset about it. She meets with Charlie, Lindsay, and Seann about how they are going to help Lacey and they all swear they will.

In Gotta Be Somebody, Skylar wants help from Misty and Seann for him to ask out Lindsay. They both tell him that never in a million years will she like him, but he's determined, so they decide to play a joke on him and convince him to rip off his shirt for Lindsay in the middle of the hall. They laugh when he does and he's upset that they pranked him like that. She runs into Charlie and Skylar who both think Lindsay likes them. She tells Charlie Lindsay won't ever like him until he acts more like a guy around her. He decides to try out for football and Misty watches his tryout, horrified by how bad he is. Everyone feels sorry for him and when he comes back with his scene look, she is very scared for him. Misty finds him making out with Nadine and convinces him that this new look is not who he really is and confesses that she likes him. They start kissing.

In Obsessed, she informs Lacey about her and Charlie and Seann and Lindsay's relationships. When Lindsay tells her that Lacey will sleep over that night, Misty doesn't want her to because of her drug problem and tells Lindsay something bad will happen. In the bathroom, she starts getting excited about the sleepover when Lacey makes it sound fun. At her house, Lacey drugs Lindsay to make her have more fun and Misty thinks Lindsay is acting weird when she wants to slide down the stair rail.

She calls Charlie and tells him Lacey is dangerous.

In Detective, she tells Seann that she misses Lindsay as a roommate and is excited to stalk Lacey with him. She convinces Charlie to go with them and they find out who sells Lacey her drugs. She stops Seann from confronting them. She is walking home with Charlie and tells him she likes bad boys, but she loves him. He leaves to talk to Nadine and she later is on the phone with Lindsay from inside her hotel. Lindsay drops the phone leaving Misty clueless about what is going on.

In Youth Without Youth, Misty is rushing to Lindsay's hotel to see what happened and Lacey apologizes to her for her addiction. Misty accepts the apology and they call Lindsay. She tells them about her mother's infidelity and Misty cinvinces her not to tell her father until she knows the facts. She is at the smoothie shop with Nadine when Dana and Kevin spy on them. They get a call from Lindsay telling them she is moving in with Seann and they both freak out. After Lindsay and Seann get intimate, she calls Misty and she gives her advice about sex.

In Just Like A Pill, she decides to offer her help to Dana for the dance and the two become friends. At her house, Dana gives her advice about her and Charlie's distance and she takes it to thought. Misty walks into Charlie's house while he is alone and wants to spend time with him, but he doesn't want her over.

In On the Floor, Misty leaves Lacey's house early to go help Dana with the decorations for the dance.
