On the Season 2 "Faking It" premiere, Liam insisted you're only as sick as your secrets. And on tonight's episode, he and Amy decided -- at least temporarily -- to remain unwell.

While Shane, Karma and Lauren were busy trying to earn a spot in Hester High School's drama club, Amy -- who'd gotten word that Liam was THISCLOSE to telling Karma that he'd slept with her best friend -- pulled out all of the stops to keep Liam's mouth shut. In her eyes, coming clean to Karma would only hurt her, and that was reason enough to keep the wool pulled over her eyes.

Still, Liam saw things differently. Besides the fact that the guilt of deceiving his crush was eating him alive, the lies that lined the walls of the Booker household were a constant reminder of how toxic deceit can be (his sister is...his mom?!). And when Amy saw for herself just what a tangled web Liam's family had woven, she finally understood where he was coming from.

Ultimately, though, Liam conceded and told Amy that he'd keep their tryst under wraps. But doesn't he have a right to air his and Amy's dirty laundry? Or is sparing Karma the pain of discovering her favorite people's secret for the best? Take our poll, and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
