Nathan Strips At Boy Toy Auction

It's the night of the annual BoyToy Auction at Tree Hill Highschool. Girls bid for the boys to spend the night with them and all the money goes to charity, not forgetting the midnight kiss that all the boys have to give their date when the night is over. Brooke is desperate to get a boy and has a whole evening planned to occupy her time with her win. However, the one she wanted, she didn't have enough money for and got outbidded so ends up having to run to the cash machine to get as much money as possible out to win herself a boy. There are 4 boys left to bid on Jake, Tim, Lucas and Nathan.

Haley and Peyton are waiting to place their bids. Haley has decided not to bid for Nathan but for Lucas so they can spend some time together whereas Peyton decides to bid on Jake. Tim is the first boy out and the girls are laughing at him as he makes a fool out of himself on stage. As no one bids for Tim, Deb starts to feel sorry for him and makes a $8 bid as she has some chores that need doing around her house. The next is Jake, who comes out in a raven mascot costume. Peyton begins bidding for him but more and more people are raising how much they want to spend on him. Peyton eventually bids all her money, but a voice from the crowd bids higher giving Jake to someone else. Lucas comes through the curtains next and seems very uncomfortable on stage. Haley bids her money on Lucas and wins him even though she has to tuck into her cafe savings. The final boy out of the curtain is Nathan. Loving the attention from the crowd, Nathan ends up shirtless as all the girls scream at him. A jealous Haley begs Peyton to bid on him as she doesn't want anyone else with him, and Peyton ends up getting Nathan for the night. As Nathan is sold, Brooke runs in the auction room finding she has missed her chance. As Mouth takes up all the wires, a girl bids on him. Brooke realizes this is her chance and bids $200 on Mouth just because she can.

At the cafe, Karen is visited by Larry Sawyer, he invites her round for dinner, and Karen accepts. On the way out of the auction, Brooke is trying to trade Mouth for someone else as Deb tells Tim to go and get changed because he is going to need a shower after working for Deb, not realizing Deb is talking about chores, Tim thinks they are going to sleep together and rushes home happy. Jake's winner is also revealed, Nicki. She has won him as she wants him to hear her out. Brooke cancels
