Crate & Quarrel. Keith is watching TV in the living room, and once again I have to give props to whoever finds the video snippets. This time it's Mimi from the Drew Carey Show, and it makes the perfect contrast to the sad Brenda who closed out the previous scene. David joins him on the sofa, and Keith mentions that he thinks having a Latino influence will be a good thing for Fisher & Sons. "Yeah, too bad it comes in the form of a controlling homophobe," replies David. "When we first met, YOU were a controlling homophobe," points out Keith, and David proceeds to remind Keith how attractive he found that. Then he invites Keith to go to Claire's graduation with him, but Keith flat-out refuses to attend. "Why?" snarks David. "Because you might miss The Young & The Restless?" Yeah, right. I seriously doubt Mathew St. Patrick will EVER miss that show. He must think he's died and gone to pay-cable heaven with the scripts he gets now. In-jokes aside, David is still pretty angry. "What do you think we are, roommates?" he yells. "You act like I don't even exist." This gets Angry Keith up off the couch, and the shouting begins in earnest. There's too much to transcribe everything, but David is mostly pissed off about Keith's selfishness, as evidenced by his sending Taylor away without asking, and his failure to even notice that David was upset about Nate. Keith, however, is angry about -- well, pretty much everything, it seems, and eventually he ends up pinning David against the wall as they scream at one another. The struggle continues, and eventually they collapse onto the floor, with Keith lying on top of David. There's a long beat, and then just as they lean in to kiss…
…we cut to some frat boy, puking up his beer onto the lawn. Ew. Claire and DangerSlut wander past, with Claire commenting on the fact that she won't miss high school even the teeniest little bit. There's some discussion of their various classmate's college selections, and then DangerSlut asks how Claire's LAC Arts interview went. "It severely sucked," she replies, before sadly beginning to extol the virtues of East Valley. "They've got a darkroom," she sighs. "They've got paint. And everyone always says you get out of college what you put into it anyways, so…whatever." "Well, I'm glad you're so delirious about it," replies DangerSlut, "because it looks like I'm going there, too." Heh. Apparently, the girl who took the SATs in DangerSlut's place turned herself in, and now Yale wants nothing to do with her. Or at least that's the story she's telling us. I think we all know the real reason is that, unlike Eric Balfour, Marina Black didn't get a pilot for next season. For some reason (probably the joint she's smoking), Claire finds this absolutely hilarious, and almost falls out of her chair from laughing so hard.
