The Mystery of Amy's Manhattan Farewell (and Triumphant Return) in "The Secret Life of the American Teenager"
Ah, "The Secret Life of the American Teenager." A show that brought us teen pregnancy drama, love triangles that could rival the Bermuda Triangle, and enough misunderstandings to fuel a telenovela convention. But amidst the chaos, there was one burning question that plagued fans for a shockingly long time: when does Amy FINALLY come back from New York?

Remember that whole "I'm gonna chase my dreams in the city that never sleeps" schtick in season 2? Yeah, Amy bails on everyone (including her adorable baby daughter!) to pursue a career in...well, that's never really clear. Let's just say it wasn't exactly starring on Broadway.

Prepare for some fireworks (metaphorical, not literal...although with Adrian around, you never know). This is where things get interesting. Is Amy back for good?

Right?
