Sean walks up and tells George Washington to get away from Meghan. Sean sits down and apologizes, because he knows how important her individuality is, but knowing her parents hate him has thrown him. Sean needs a hit, but it won't be the sock shirt. I think Meghan needs to realize that they need money more than she needs her fashion sense right now, and get over it. Sean claims to be turned on by Meghan's hat, and they start making out. Kissing solves all problems. That's the lesson that I have learned.
Ben and Trevor walk into the party, all drunk. Felicity notices them, and also determines that they've been drinking. But she's cool with it. Trevor asks where the keg is, and announces that they got kicked out of Chemistry class. Ben doesn't want to talk about it. Trevor asks again where the keg is. Because he's really drunk. Get it? Ben tells Felicity that he'll talk about it later, and follows Trevor. Felicity watches him go with a worried look on her face.
Javier plays the slots with little success. He kisses each coin before putting it into the machine, which is really gross. My mother always told me never to put money in my mouth, because you don't know where it's been. Good advice. Noel insists that Javier should be betting three dollars at a time, because you can't get a big payoff without a big bet. Javier thinks that playing the slots is like love, because you always get "snake eyes." Yeah, I know that's craps, not slot machines. It's Javier. Just go with it. Javier loves Lionel Richie, because "for him love is always 'Dancing on the Ceiling.'" Do you think the writers got a bonus for every Lionel Richie song title they could work into the script? Javier agrees to put in three coins, and then starts trying to wrestle the phone away from Noel so that he can call Samuel. So it takes them a minute to realize that Javier has hit the jackpot. Noel tries to help as the coins pour out, and Javier screeches, "Don't touch my money!" Hee.
Richard chats up the Princess Leia chick, impressing her with lines from Star Wars. She suggests that they get a drink, but Richard can't get his helmet off. He dashes off to look for help. He finds Elena, and tries to get her to help pull it off. Felicity watches as Trevor and some other guys do shots, but Ben isn't with them. She spies Ben sitting on the floor in her bedroom, alone. Meanwhile, Trevor is grunting and staggering around.
Felicity walks into her bedroom and asks Ben, who looks like he's been crying, whether he's not doing tequila shots. Ben says he isn't. Felicity sits down next to him and asks whether he wants to talk about it. Ben says he felt like he was ten years old, and he knew he was right, but it didn't matter, because "he just would not admit he was wrong." Ben concludes that it reminds him of "the same old crap [his] father used to pull."
