S2·E22 When In Rome...

Sharon, Maria and Brock are part of a cultural immersion trip to Italy. As luck would have it, Rome is the home of Maria's maternal grandparents. Once there, the girlfriends clash. Maria embraces her heritage and roots and starts to behave in an old-fashioned, moralistic way while Sharon just wants to have fun--preferably with some cute young Italian guy. And she does--with Marcello, her Italian fantasy come true! At the same time Brock gets into the people and history of the place, thereby showing another side to Maria and bringing them closer. Things come to a head when he and Maria stay out too late and ignite her grandparents' wrath. When they blame Sharon as a ‘bad influence', Maria comes to her friend's defence.
