Meanwhile, Alexis is on the path to seduce Arthur into extending Mode's printing deadline. She takes off her trench coat in preparation to wow him with her enormous knockers, but covers back up when a small person, who is not Arthur, notes what a big girl she is. Turns out Arthur left in the spring, and this little fellow, Harvey Milfree, took over. He is fascinated by Alexis's giant feet, and asks how she finds shoes. She tells him who she is, and he replies that he's not pushing her deadline. She says that they're shorthanded, which he takes as a slur. He points out quite correctly that she came over to convince Arthur to keep the place open by showing her jugs, but that she covered them up as soon as she saw him. He asks for a little peek, but she has a better idea, and grabs the key from the lock and barricades it with a bench, noting that the two of them and the two girls are staying inside.
Back at rehab, Cameron vaguely remembers doing the Mode cover shoot, as well as the photographer. Betty quite vividly remembers how Cameron threw coffee at her, and then filled the cup with vodka, which Cameron says, with a laugh, is "classic me." She's clean and sober now, she says, and has totally found God, who touches her, but not, like, in a sexual way. I hope not; otherwise this means that Lindsay Lohan will carry the second coming of the savior. As Cameron stretches, Daniel asks her if she'll reshoot the cover tonight. Cameron is in a really intensive six-week rehab, and says no way. Betty takes the "making amends" route, given that Cameron was kind of mean the first time. Cameron admits that she did pee in someone's chair, since she thought it was the bathroom. It was Betty's chair. Classic Cameron! And, sadly, classic Betty.
Meanwhile, Wili congratulates her new staffers on the best decision of their lives, and tells them that, as of tomorrow morning, financing for her -- nay, their -- magazine will be secure. Marc toasts to world domination, and changes it to "To Slater!," before Wili tells her new staff to enjoy their two complimentary pieces of cheese. Marc pulls her aside and asks what her financing scheme is, and she says that since her sugar daddy kicked the bucket early, she's going to turn to her own daddy. Marc chuckles and says it's funny that Wili has a father, since he always imagines her bubbling up from a cauldron or being born of a jackal. She tells him he's sweet, and gives him an extra piece of cheese.
The Meade siblings are on the phone, Alexis congratulating Daniel on his progress and adding that she's still negotiating with Harvey. She begs Harvey, saying that he doesn't know what they've been through. Harvey gives her the "Oooh, poor pretty rich girl's got problems, boo hoo!" Oooh, is he ever going to get a healthy helping of tranberry sauce with his turkey.
