Yet Another Group Writing Exercise - the Crown Heights Teen Drama Version

Bsd
Inspired by recent events (I'M MOVING OUT OF THE BASEMENT!!!!!),and a chance comment made by my roommate (the incredible Ilanica) about such events, I now have the basic plot for my Crown Heights teen drama (tentatively titled CROWN HEIGHTS 11213) :
When three young women move out of their basement apartment to the third floor of the all-female-resident Brooklyn brownstone, their landlord shockingly rents the basement to his young male relative and two friends. Hilarity, hijinks, and hysteria ensue.

Now I need YOU to contribute following plot lines!

Trashy Teen Dramas

I really like trashy teen dramas. It's a weakness, like enjoying really terrible chocolate, or candy corn. We know that it's not a worthy indulgence, but we like it!
My latest probably-never-going-to-go-anywhere inspiration: a trashy teen drama set in... Crown Heights.
 Call it "The CH" or "Crown Heights 11213" or something. 
An angry teenage boy is taken in by a warm and loving family in Crown Heights. 
Put him in the basement, give the mom a high school sister for him to flirt with, and let the drama ensue. 
Late-night parties, mikvah scenes, getting kicked out of (and allowed back into?) yeshiva...
I can almost hear the theme song...
