The men were all wowed by the many lovely ladies in their gowns as everyone arrived at Craig’s fundraiser ball, where most of the guests seemed to have given the “romantic royals” theme a rock star twist. Casey (Romeo?) was dazzled by Maddie’s (Juliet?) beauty, but annoyed that Adam had bailed without listening to Gwen sing…. Gwen (Pocahontas?) did the same for Will (John Smith?)…. Dusty (too “cool” for a costume) flirted with Lucy (Cleopatra) and Lucinda (who he called “Elizabeth” in a nice nod to both her costume, of Queen Elizabeth, and her portrayer, Elizabeth Hubbard)…. It didn’t escape the notice of Tarzan Mike (uncomfortably supporting his wife at the event by wearing a tiny, little pigtail in his hair) or Margo that Katie seemed preoccupied with whether Simon would be showing up…. Paul, bedazzled in a glam Lancelot getup, had his buttons pushed when Craig “let it slip” that he chose Meg’s costume…. Craig and Katie made nice…. A sad Barbara (Sargent’s Madame X) complimented Will and Gwen, then noted how jealous Dusty seemed of Lucy’s date…. Vienna was hilariously snobby with Kim and Bob…. Upstairs, Simon and Carly prepped for their heist, with her in head-to-toe Grace Kelly — for whom the Prince of Leonia has a reportedly paralyzing weakness. Simon scattered rose petals on the bed, readying it for Vienna, then asked if Carly was jealous. “Like I couldn’t have you any time I wanted,” she purred.
Carly was shocked to hear that Jack was handling the security detail, while Katie kept her eye on her ex. But Simon soon made his move: “I’m so sorry I let you go,” he told Vienna, leaning in to whisper in her ear. “I want you so bad, I can taste it.” Carly then pulled Simon aside to ask him to abort the mission because of Jack, while Katie told Vienna that Simon’s in love with someone else. Having spotted “Grace Kelly,” the enchanted prince — like one of Pavlov’s dogs — interrupted to ask Carly for a dance. But first, Vienna had to find out what’s going on between Carly and “my Simon,” while Katie nonchalantly confirmed to Simon that she told Vienna he’s with Carly now.
Emily (Marie Antoinette) tattled to Dusty and his bodyguard Chaz that Craig is planning to make someone disappear and that he’s got a jet fueled and ready — but no one expected that it would actually be Craig who had himself Copperfielded away during the ball’s dramatic climax. The magician he hired charmed everyone (and even flirted with Paul!), then stuck “volunteer” Craig in a box and made him vanish.
Poor Jade (if she had a costume, she probably would have chosen Cinderella) was sadly spending the evening at Yo’s, where Adam helped her deflect a lascivious fellow patron. “Sometimes you want to go to a place where nobody knows your name,” he joked, then asked why she wasn’t out with friends. “I don’t have any friends,” she responded bluntly, but that didn’t deter him. Intrigued, Adam introduced himself. That’s when Will and Casey goofily called (trading the phone back and forth between them) to bug him to show up at the party. Adam is so cool now that when he called Casey “dork,” and it made sense. He promptly invited her to the gala.
