Ben is out on the street when Felicity catches up to him. He says that he needed to get out, but it has nothing to do with her or them. She complains that he is shutting her out. He says that it isn't about them, but she says it is about them. Ben gets angry and reports that his father disappeared for two days when Ben was in the seventh grade. He and his mother filed reports and made phone calls looking for him, and it turned out that his dad spent two days in his car getting wasted. When his father returned, he never said anything to them. According to Ben, that wasn't even the worst thing his father had ever done, and he hopes that his dad is dead.
J.C. Penney goes retro and uses Viewmaster technology in its latest campaign. The trailer for Bedazzled features a scantily clad Liz Hurley and a dozy looking Brendan Fraser. My verdict on this flick: no class, lots of ass. A Revlon commercial with all of the supermodels not used in the last Maybelline ad. So, karaoke is Japanese for "tone deaf." Starburst Fruit Chews, you are dead to me. Dead, I say! Karaoke is MBTV-ese for "staff meeting." The Charmed dames revisit childhood in an upcoming episode. Read the Charmed recap if you care. The WB hypes Hype (starring Canadian comedian and lipstick abuser, Gavin Crawford) and For Your Love. When ING Direct advertises in America, it doesn't use the Dutch guy that's in the Canadian commercials. Huh. IKEA takes the high road with bad bowl cuts and farting vinyl chairs. If you ever go out on a blind date, you should be wearing Invisalign braces.
Molly and Felicity are in the kitchen of their apartment, and Molly tells Felicity that her psychic mother has forecast that Ben feels bad for yelling at her on the street, and that he's going to apologize. Felicity doesn't quite know what to make of Molly.
Meghan is chatting with Knoll, and she says, "It's not about the money, it's about the burn-out." She tells him about Jacob Perlmutter, a "total loser" who started running with the fast crowd, couldn't deal, and went crazy. Knolls claims that he's not a loser, and Meghan snipes, "Says you." Gnatalie lives at a speed that is "dangerous" to people like Knoll, according to Meghan. She continues, "Twelve months from now, a hundred thousand won't even cover medical costs at a place like Bellevue, let alone room and board." Sean arrives, and he asks Knoll if his nose is too big or too crooked. Knoll doesn't really have an opinion one way or another. Meghan drags Sean out of the room.
