Today is Labor Day, so what better day for Anne to go into labor? There's just one little snag: Anne's labor is not very long — in fact, she may not even make it to the hospital on time! And though Anne and George are now back together, relationship problems currently plague several other couples in this mid-season finale, including Amy and Ben, Grace and Jack, and Ricky and Adrian. One couple even try counseling, while another hit a wall that they just can't seem to get past.

Dance Your Ass Off

The Secret Life of the American Teenager
8 pm/ET ABC Family
In last week's season premiere, John Schneider suffered the same fate portraying Grace Bowman's father as he did playing Clark Kent's father on Smallville: His character was killed off the show. Tonight his death is mourned by everyone who knew him, especially Grace, who was in a fight with her dad before he got into a plane accident. She's also plagued with guilt because she believes her actions (forsaking her vow of chastity until marriage by sleeping with Jack) are to blame for his death.

The Secret Life of the American Teenager returns Monday with not just the usual love triangle, but possibly a love pentagon. Amy's dating Ben, but Daren Kagasoff's Ricky may be angling for her affections as well — when he isn't pursuing a spark with Grace (Megan Park). Of course, Grace has a boyfriend, with whom she has her own drama.

Not that Secret Life is all about teenage love — this season begins with a major death, expected to affect the show's young and old characters alike. We talked with Kagasoff and Park about what to expect. Watch the video below:

Secret Life Star: Ben "Will Start to Crack" in Season 2

Ken Baumann

There will be life and death on the Season 2 premiere of The Secret Life of the American Teenager (Monday, 8 pm/ET, ABC Family). Someone will get pregnant (not hard to figure out who) and, as already revealed, someone else dies. "[The death] affects everybody, but I'd say it affects the youth of the show more so," Ken Baumann tells TVGuide.com. Baumann's good boy Ben has his own drama to worry about now that baby John makes four for him, Amy and Ricky. See what else Baumann has to say about the "very dramatic changes," how he prepared to play a father and which teen is the better parent.
