year that started in season 1. Half-brothers Nathan and Lucas Scott were bitter rivals, both on and off the basketball court; now they bond as brothers. But there is drama, trauma, devotion, betrayal, twists and turns to come. To protect those he loves, Lucas moves in with Dan. Brooke and Peyton mend their friendship, but romantic turmoil gets cranked up. Newly married couple, Haley and Nathan's relationship is pushed to the brink when Haley gets the opportunity of a lifetime. Newcomers to Tree Hill push emotions into high gear. The vindictive Dan Scott is as usual controlling others like an evil puppet master. However, there are some things even he can't control.
