After a student objects to Brandon and Mat's Romeo and Juliet musical, Lena has to tell Brandon that he might not be able to put the production up at school on an all-new episode of "The Fosters," airing MONDAY, FEBRUARY 29 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EST) on Freeform, the new name for ABC Family.
Brandon's senior thesis is in jeopardy when a student raises concerns about the play glorifying suicide, leaving the school honor board to vote on whether or not his Romeo and Juliet musical can be performed at Anchor Beach. Rita's (guest star Rosie O'Donnell) daughter Chloe reaches out to Callie after Rita refuses to take her calls. Meanwhile, Stef teaches a class on handling emotion as part of a Youth Outreach Program.
