Julie gets a tour of her new workplace. The tour guide points out the offices of the various partners, including Carol Anderson's. Julie interrupts to ask what Carol is like. The tour guide says that Carol is really great and then continues the tour while Julie stares forlornly at Jane Kazcmarek...I mean, "Carol Anderson."
Noel walks into Richard's room to find Richard welding something. Noel asks what's going on, and Richard says that Noel should give up being all sanctimonious. Noel asks what Richard is making, and Richard says he's making a support arm for his satellite dish. Does anyone else think that there's no way Richard would know enough about anything to weld something? Noel says that he already told Richard he couldn't do it. Richard says that the only way he will get in trouble is if Noel reports him, and if Noel reports him, Richard will tattle about Noel and Felicity's relationship. Noel asks if this is blackmail, like duh, Noel, obviously it is. Richard returns to his welding. Noel ineffectually shields his eyes from the sparks.
In her dorm room, Felicity opens her giant package and starts pulling things out. Noel knocks and enters and says that he wishes his parents sent him packages like that. Felicity says that it's from Todd, and Noel immediately gets all insecure. Felicity tells him to check the answering machine. Noel listens to a message from Todd asking Felicity to give him a call at the hotel. Noel asks if she called him, and Felicity just points to the answering machine, where another message from Todd has begun playing, asking her to call him. A few more messages follow from Todd, all begging Felicity to call. Noel says that Todd called Felicity his first crush, and wonders if that's accurate. Felicity shushes him to listen to the following message: "Meghan, it's Bridget. You have my boots, you bitch. Call me." Felicity says that she meant the next one. It plays: "Felicity, I just want to sit down with you so I can make my case, but you won't call me back. I can't believe it's come to this. I dare you to go out with me. [pause] It's Todd." Noel looks shocked and says that this is a problem. Felicity finds a letter inside the box and starts reading it. The letter explains that the contents of the package are "a Felicity time capsule, circa 1992." Todd hopes that it will "rekindle a childlike sense of wonder" that he's afraid she has lost. Noel is excited to find some Mallomars in the package, and then asks if Felicity told Todd to get lost. Felicity asks if Noel thinks she's lost her childlike sense of wonder. Before Noel can answer, Meghan walks in. Felicity asks what happened to her nose, which is all red and swollen. Meghan says that it's infected, thanks to Todd Mulcahy. Felicity asks how Meghan knows Todd. Meghan just glares. Noel asks if he should be concerned about Todd. Felicity says that she was twelve, and never had a crush on him. Noel asks if she's going to be firm. Felicity says that she doesn't have time to be firm with all of her other problems. Meghan says that if Bridget calls, "tell her if she wants her boots back, she can pry them off my cold, dead feet." Noel asks Felicity if there is a plan regarding Todd. Felicity says that she doesn't want to be cruel, so she guesses she should go talk to someone who knows what it feels like to be stalked. Noel, scared, asks, "Who?" Cut to Felicity knocking on Ben's door. Ben answers and asks what's going on. Felicity asks if he's got a minute. And...commercial.
