My So Called Life, Моя так называемая жизнь episode 3 Guns and Gossip. ( ENG)

After a gunshot goes off in school, Brian Krakow experiences pressure from authority figures to inform on Rickie, who is suspected of having brought the gun to school. While parents become very concerned, students remain relatively calm about the situation. Although Rickie did not bring the gun to school, he wants fellow students to think he did, believing that he will be harassed less for his bisexuality. He points out in class that firearms are not just tools of aggression; they are also often tools of defence. After Angela comforts Rickie in his car, their friendship grows stronger. Meanwhile, Angela is dealing with a rumour that she had sex with Jordan Catalano. It is discovered that the rumour originated with Brian Krakow.
