    http://www.hollywoodnews.com/2011/03/11/new-secret-life-of-the-american-teenager-season-to-be-biggest-yet/

    FYI - it's running for 24 episodes straight through, the remaing ten ep. from the second part of season 3 + 14 eps. from season 4 (part 1).....so it'll run through March-August.

    Just like MIOBI, TSLOTAT has detailed synopsis on 3x15-3x25, it's a very detailed overview of each ep.
    Episode 3.15 “Who Do You Trust”
    Adrian and Ben find out that they are having a little girl. They are elated. Ben wants to ask Adrian to marry him but he‘s afraid she‘ll say no. Ashley wants to be home schooled b/c she doesn‘t want to be around overly happy and gossipy people anymore. Ricky and Amy have decided to have sex but she insists he get tested first. He asks the girls he‘s been with if he should be worried and they say he should be. He goes to get tested and runs into his foster mother who works at the clinic and she tells him she‘s there for him no matter what happens. They test him together and he‘s terrified of what he might have. When he returns home his birth mom is at the door having been let out of prison and has a bag filled with her things. She promises living with him is only temporary.

    Episode 3.16 “Mirrors”
    Ricky tries to have his custody agreement declare he cannot live with his mother Nora but the mediator in Amy and Ricky‘s custody agreement says that sometimes even our parents need parents. He asks his foster parents to take her in because he‘s still getting over being her child. They initially say no but look like they will agree to it. Grant asks Grace to get tested before they have sex because Grace was with Jack who was with Adrian who had sex with Ricky who slept around a lot. They fight but when Grant tells Grace he loves her she agrees to get tested. Lauren is devastated that her boyfriend Jesse broke up with her because he‘s a senior and will be going off to college soon. Madison dumps Jack for an ―older man‖ who works at the mall with her. Her father intervenes and tells her she can‘t date him b/c he‘s mid-twenties. Ben asks Adrian to live with him. She won‘t and so Ben asks his father if he can propose to Adrian. His father tells him that he should consider waiting until he doesn‘t have to ask his father if he can marry someone.

    Episode 3.17 “Guess Who’s Not Coming To Dinner”
    Margaret, Ricky‘s foster mom, lays down the ground rules for his birthmother living at their home. No men or women in her bedroom. Margaret has heard that Nora is a lesbian. Nora casually tells Ricky that she has a girlfriend who is a public defender. It‘s her first real relationship. Though he‘s frustrated and it takes some getting used to, he eventually agrees to meet her. Ashley isn‘t participating in home school; she‘s just sitting at home instead of going to school. George is trying to figure out what to do with his daughter who is so stuck and frustrated that everyone in her life is having babies instead of being a normal family. George yells at Anne because he was used to being the good cop in the good cop/bad cop routine and now Anne wants to be good cop. Ben asks Ruben and Cindy if he can have Adrian‘s hand in marriage. While skeptical, Ben‘s effort that he puts into asking Adrian to marry him overwhelms Cindy and she agrees. Ben asks Adrian and she excitedly says yes.

    Episode 3.18 “Another Proposal”
    Amy is upset that Adrian and Ben are getting married. George is feeling lonely without Anne in the house so he stops by to visit Ricky and meet Nora, Ricky‘s mother. George clearly thinks she‘s good looking and mentions that they might be parents in law some day. Ricky does NOT like where this is heading. Ricky tries to convince Ben not to marry Adrian so he‘s not pressured to marry Amy. With this, Ben himself is getting nervous about a big wedding. Adrian is preparing huge wedding plans and Ben proposes instead of a big wedding, they use that money to buy a condo of their own. Adrian is ecstatic and throws herself into finding the nicest place possible. Ben sees whatever project, Adrian will throw herself into making it the best it can be no matter how nervous it makes him. Amy, jealous of the steps that Adrian and Ben are taking, wants to move forward with Ricky and so she proposes to him. On another marriage front, Lauren finds out that her mom and step-dad are splitting up. But she DOESN‘T know that it‘s because her mom and dad are getting back together.

    Episode 3.19 “Deeper and Deeper”
    Ricky is still reeling from Amy asking him to marry her. Everyone around him is pushing him to give her an answer but he‘s not ready to deal with the consequences of saying no just yet. He just wants to take care of the baby and work at the butcher shop so Amy can go to college. Because of his hesitancy Adrian, who knows Ricky better than anyone else, tells Amy use reverse psychology on him. She pretends that she respects his decision and he asks Amy to move in with him. Amy gives Adrian advice on how to get Ben to buy the condo of her dreams. Adrian tells Ben that by moving into a condo on their own, they are not abandoning the house he was raised in with his mother. He can always return to the home when he feels lost. Grace tells her mother she‘s having a sleep over at Grant‘s and Kathleen makes her promise they‘ll use condoms. When they do have sex, they love it! They admit to each other that they are glad they waited because they are closer now than they were before, and both say “I love you”. Ashley‘s guidance counselor wants Ashley to engage with other homeschooled kids and George gets her a “study buddy” named Toby to work with. It seems like these two might get along! George also resigns that he needs a life outside the house and jumps at the opportunity to take out Ricky‘s mom on a date. Little does he know that Ricky‘s mom is gay, and they end up meeting her at a restaurant with Ruben, who has just gotten her lover out of jail. When he calls Anne and she tells him that Amy doesn‘t actually want to marry Ricky, she just wants to live with him, he‘s enraged. Anne calms him down and says that it‘s time for the mother and father to start a life of their own, and in fact, it‘s time for GEORGE to get a life of his own.

    Episode 3.20 “Moving in and Out”
    Ashley is enraged that Amy is moving in with Ricky. George isn‘t much happier because he knows she‘s doing it because she wants to keep up with Ben and Adrian. Turns out they all are nervous for this big step. Ricky tries to have Leo tell him it‘s not okay that Amy moves in with him because he‘s not ready for the responsibility. Leo encourages him to speak his hesitation to live with Amy and also to consider going to college. Amy and Adrian get wrapped up in talking competitively about who is winning in the relationship here; Adrian and Ben or Amy and Ricky. Anne talks some sense into Amy that this isn‘t a competitive situation and that if Ricky and Amy aren‘t sure about living together then they should make sure it‘s right before they do. Amy can sense that Ricky is nervous about her moving in and tells him that they should take some more time. Ricky is relieved. Adrian‘s mom also tries to make Adrian think rationally about having a baby and getting married. She mentions that Ben might want a pre-nup and asks how Adrian feels about that. It is clear it never occurred to Adrian and she would not be happy about it. Madison wants to go to church with Jack because she‘s nervous that the sex Jack had with Grace would be better than the sex he‘d have with her. Jack is determined to make Madison more emotionally secure by not having sex with her yet. Grace‘s mom is nervous. Her husband is traveling to a foreign country and she‘s afraid that the plane will crash again. Grace assures her the chances of that happening are slim to none and then asks her if she can have a sleepover with Grant. Her mom reluctantly agrees.

    Episode 3.21 “Young at Heart”
    Adrian and Grace shop for wedding dresses and Adrian contemplates getting married in a church. She admits that she and Ben had amazing, crazy, fun sex and that she feels very blessed. Adrian makes sure to tell Amy how good the sex is when she‘s thanking her for helping throw her a baby shower. Amy had reluctantly agreed when Grace asked her to help her throw one since Adrian threw one for Amy. Ever since Amy told Ricky she isn‘t ready to move in with him, Ricky now pushes Amy to move in. Ricky‘s getting impatient. He wants to know why Amy is holding him at arms length. He rushes over to talk with her about it and runs into Karlee, the sister of Ashley‘s study buddy, Toby, who was going to drive Toby and Ashley on a date. Ricky realizes that he had sex with her before. She invites herself over to his place that night. He goes into Amy and she confidently declares that it‘s important for him to understand that when she says “No” to sex, she means no. She doesn‘t mean forever, but sex is not just on his terms. He‘s frustrated and storms out. But in a turn of events, when Karlee stops by his place that night to have sex with him, Ricky doesn‘t answer the door.

    Episode 3.22 “Loose Lips”
    Grace‘s mom made invitations for Adrian‘s birthday, but the girls are stumped as to who to invite. Adrian decides to invite all the girls who had sex with Ricky to show them how great her life is now without him. In the hallway she calls out all the girls that Ricky had sex with and lines them up in front of Amy. Amy starts crying because she‘s forced to see Ricky‘s former flames. She quits throwing the shower. Then Adrian gets upset because she feels like Amy forcing her to come up with a guest list is her way of pointing out Adrian has no friends. Ben tries to protect Adrian by talking to Amy but Ricky insists it‘s a chick fight and they have to stay out of it. Ben goes to Amy‘s house and viciously puts Amy down. He‘s downright mean. George walks in mid fight and kicks Ben out. This fight incorporates the whole town. George and Leo get into it. Ashley and Amy get into it. Ricky and Adrian fight. Everyone is overturned in their town.

    Episode 3.23 “Round II”
    Ricky shows up at the Juergens to find out about the fight with Ben. George tells him he handled it and that he told Leo that Ben must apologize to Amy. He reiterates that Leo said Amy ruined his son‘s life by dating Ben when she knew she was pregnant with Ricky‘s baby. Amy is comforted and moved that her father has her back. Ricky, angry that Leo said those things about his girlfriend, goes to confront Leo. Leo hides in his office from Ricky and Leo‘s assistant tells Ricky that Leo loves him like a son. This realization makes Ricky step back from his anger and realize all Leo has done for him. He relents. Leo realizes he needs to apologize to Amy. Amy accepts his apology wholeheartedly. She knows how much Leo loves his son because George loves her just as much. Adrian finds out that Amy said that Adrian got pregnant and is marrying Ben to get back at Ricky for dating Amy. Adrian refuses to allow Amy to throw her a baby shower. At school there is a blow up in the hallway. Amy yells that she‘s tired of being a teenage mom, Adrian says she‘ll have it harder because she‘s never had a best friend and support system like Amy has, Ben starts to apologize to everyone for saying the things he said and tries to explain Amy and Adrian‘s intentions in regards to the baby shower and how Ricky‘s history caused all of it. Ricky yells at all of them for making him the cause of their discontent. Ricky is embarrassed for sleeping with so many women. He‘s emotionally damaged and had sex with them to hide from his problems. He‘s become some prize that they all fight over and everyday he‘s reminded how many women he‘s hurt. This outburst really opens everyone‘s eyes to the truth behind Ricky and helps them put to rest the competition that‘s been brewing. Amy attends Adrian‘s shower along with another girls who appreciate Adrian for her wonderful qualities. Adrian has a beautiful shower and at last, there is peace.

    Episode 3.24 “It’s Not Over Till It’s Over”
    Adrian discusses coming back to school a week after having a baby with her counselor. She needs to come back that quickly to graduate on time. Her counselor Katelyn expresses that she doesn‘t think Adrian understands the toll having a baby takes on a woman and it‘s not possible that she‘ll be back at school in six days. Ben also plans on being back to school quickly and expresses to Katelyn that they‘ll have a nanny that will do most of the ―hard stuff‖ and that they‘ll be there to supervise. Adrian and Ben independently both have second thoughts about having a baby and getting married. Adrian texts Ricky to talk to him about it but he invites his mom and her girlfriend over in case Adrian shows up at his apartment because he doesn‘t want to discuss it with her. Ben also tells Amy that he‘s not ready to get married and have a baby, but Amy stays neutral. Ricky and Amy agree not to say anything and to let Adrian and Ben move forward with the wedding. After they are married, Ben gives Adrian a wedding gift, a diamond bracelet. On his guidance counselors recommendation, Ricky shows up with flowers for Amy trying to woo her before he sleeps with her instead of pressuring her. Jack‘s dad helps Jack realize that even though a part of him wants Grace back, he doesn‘t want to lose Madison, and therefore he truly loves Madison. George is meddling in Ashley‘s and Amy‘s life because he‘s tired of being single and doesn‘t know how to move on from his relationship with Anne.
