Back at the Suarez house, Hilda yells to Justin to come downstairs, and gets the soundtrack to Annie in response. Santos says something tells him that Justin isn't going to knock someone up on his prom night. And that's disappointing? Santos has some whack priorities. Hilda and Santos get on the "letting him be who he wants to be/my son is a flamer" debate again. Santos says that by toughening him up and not letting him be on the color guard or in The Music Man, they're being good parents and protecting Justin. This debate is interrupted by a knock at the door. Hilda opens it to find a fat woman and her fat child. The woman says, "You must be the mother," and then says that Justin beat up her Bobby. To which...well done, Justin! That kid is huge!
Back at Mode, Marc carries the orchid around, asking how long Wili has been spying on him; he asks with panic if she has an orchid in the stairwell. Wili tells him not to worry, because she doesn't find him nearly as interesting as he finds himself. Marc makes a quick turn and rethinks his path, but Wili tells him to stop and retrace his steps. There are people dancing. Wili asks if she sees a party hat, and then asks, with horror, "Are you people celebrating a birthday?" Marc tries to rationalize, but Wili says that birthday parties are the gateway to Secret Santas and casual Fridays. She does have a point, and plus, what is worse than an office party? A woman comes up to Marc and dances with a piece of cake, saying, "Ding dong the witch is gone, we can finally have cake!" Wili yells, "It's for your own good, you dump truck." Ha! I am totally calling people "dump truck" behind their backs from now on. Or in front of their faces if I really hate them. Marc goes to Daniel's office, but he isn't there. Wili asks to be taken to Alexis, but Marc says that she left an hour ago. Wili yells that there are deadlines, deadlines, deadlines, and asks who is running this magazine? Like, for reals, man. Say what you want about Wili, but I think that she's the only one who (a) actually knows what she's doing; (b) works.
Then, we are at Coney Island. Daniel, Alexis and Betty spot Claire riding around by herself in the bumper cars. Someone tells their kid to stay away from the crazy lady. It's seriously like Rich People Gone Wild. Betty tells Alexis and Daniel that she thinks Claire wants them to go in and get her, and they oblige like the half-witted lemmings that they in fact might be. Daniel tells Claire to leave the bumper cars, and they can all go to a clothing museum, and Alexis turns to him and says, "Seriously, you are such an idiot." Heh. They drive up to Claire, and she tells them to talk to each other. They realize that they've been set up, and threaten to leave. Just in time, Betty bumps them. That woman can drive a bumper car. She says that they're not going anywhere, and that she can bump them all night long. All night. All night. Once you get started you can't sit down, you know. Commercials.
