show sucks.
Season 2
It is a new year at PCA, and Dana has left for the European Exchange Program. Zoey and Nicole are assigned a new roommate, Lola Martinez (Victoria Justice). At the beginning of the season, both Zoey and Chase run for Class President (against their will). Chase and Michael get their own online show. The sushi restaurant burns down after an accident. This is the season in which the first-ever Zoey 101 film takes place, "Zoey 101: Spring Break-Up" and the only film that Nicole appears in. Quinn's alpaca, Otis, also comes to visit PCA at the end of season 2.
Season 3
Zoey, Chase, Lola, Michael, Quinn, Logan, and Dustin return to PCA. Zoey and her friends are 15, and Dustin is 11-12. Nicole has been enrolled in an all-girls' school after being diagnosed with Obsessive Male Gender Disorder (OMGD). This causes Quinn to become roommates with Zoey and Lola, after she's accidentally assigned to a room that doesn't exist by Coco, the girls' dorm adviser. Everyone "grows up" in this and the next season, looking older and having more mature personalities. At the end of the season, in the "Goodbye, Zoey?" TV film, Zoey transfers to a boarding school in England. Due to a webcam malfunction, she finds out that Chase is in love with her and realizes that she loves him too. This season also features a new main cast. Originally, "Goodbye, Zoey?" could have been the series finale, as the series had not yet been renewed for a fourth season, and thus an alternate ending that wrapped all story lines up was filmed. But the show was renewed, and the open ending was the one used.
Season 4
Zoey returns to PCA, but Chase has recently transferred to Covington to be with her. Chase must stay in London for at least one semester. Coco is fired as the dorm advisor and hired as a bathroom attendant. A new girl, Mira, is hired as Coco's replacement. Michael and Logan get a new roommate James. Quinn and Mark's relationship becomes rocky, and Quinn secretly begins dating Logan, with the two still trying to convince everyone they still hate each other. The school bully, Vince Blake returns. Zoey attempts to date with James, but they get caught up at Vaccaro with Quinn and Logan, who struggle to cover up their relationship, as the couple of Michael and Lola join them. In the TV Movie Zoey 101: Chasing Zoey, the prom approaches, and Zoey questions her feelings for James as Michael learns how to drive a stickshift. Quinn and Logan try to pick dates for each other to keep their relationship a secret. This is the series finale of Zoey 101, but one more episode, titled "PCA Confidential" is produced, where Zoey, Chase and Stacey answer questions for students thinking of attending PCA, while Coco supervises. This is a clip show of the series.
