- Leighton, the show's breakout star, is leaving to pursue a music career, but her departure is handled in a way that plays to her overachiever persona - she's transferring to MIT to 'take a massive step towards what would be her best, most powerful life moving forward.'
- The show is adding two new main characters, Taylor and Kacey, who will bring fresh dynamics to the group - Taylor as a 'complicated thorn in Bela's side,' and Kacey as a 'girly girl' who will challenge the existing friend group's preconceptions.
