In the car on the way home, they ask Mike if he ate the cake and he says he tasted it. They all say Pauly did too and got into it, right? Then they tell Mike about the picture they saw. Mike can't believe it, so they offer to go back and show him the picture. He's very confused since Paula "like, loves me." Ron is cracking up, and says it's funny to him because he didn't eat the cake. They head home and tell Pauly he doesn't want to know what they know. Then they tell him and he starts fast-talking about how that's the most fucked-up thing he's ever heard, and why would that girl do that to Mike since he's known her for four years. He suggests pissing on her car and Vinny says he wants to shit on her purse. "Give her a gooey Vuitton." Pauly manages a laugh. Then they fill Deena in, and she admits she had a piece of it. She's like, I haven't eaten cake at all and the one time I decide to splurge a little, this happens. She is no longer Team Paula. Mike asks Ron if he's sure Paula did this and Ron's all, "Yes, Bro." So Mike calls her to find out if she was involved.
When she answers, she's like, "Hello?" And then goes silent. And he knows right away she did it. He asks what she's up to today and she keeps saying, "Hello? Are you there?" He throws the phone and smashes it with his foot. When he gets to the other room, Pauly asks what happened. Mike: "Disconnection." Ron thinks Paula's the prank war champ and she doesn't even live in the house. Pauly screeches, "How could someone ruin a cake?!" You guys, his life is shattered by this. He'll never trust again. Poor baby. Mike just groans, clearly in shock that this happened. I'm thinking that's really it for Paula and Mike, though.
Between-commercials deleted scene, the final cut: Roger carries a giant barbecue upstairs to their deck, as all the guys are amazed. He's a mess, but they don't have any clothes that fit him in the house to replace the charcoal-covered T-shirt.
Last night. They all head up to the deck to hang out and remember all they've been through together. Vinny thinks it's bittersweet, because as much as they hate each other sometimes. They remember the first night when Nicole showed up and made out with everyone and was all, "Party's here!" She thinks she's grown up a lot from coming here at 21. She says she's the same person, just older. Then they reminisce about the guy punching Snooki in the face. They all can't even believe some guy would hit a girl. That's the first night they all really felt like they were a family. Vinny says it was the worst thing to see, but it did bring them all together. They remember Deena's first day, when she got all naked in front of Mike. She's like, "Oops. Oh well. What are you gonna do?" They even reminisce about Jenni and Pauly hooking up a little bit. Then how at bedtime, she was like, "I gotta call my boyfriend." She owns up to it, but she says that guy was a douche anyway, so she's glad it happened and that she met Roger. She says meeting him is another reason the Jersey Shore changed her life together.
