Episodes Summary
Casey desperately wants her own room, since she has to share an already small room with Lizzie. Since she has already had to sacrifice her friends, house, school, and more to live there, she thinks that getting her own room would be a fitting sacrifice for her. The problem is she wants Derek's room, who won't allow it. Even George agrees with Derek, and says it wouldn't be fair, but after discussing the idea with Nora, they decide to renovate the basement into Casey's room. Casey is erked by the very idea of living in the basement, so, by going by the fact that Derek always gets what he wants, she decides to show him her fantastic designs for the basement, until he actually decides to take it.
