What Can You Do For Me?

Jackson's at Susan's with flowers, but she won't let him in. She says she's reached her maximum allowance for humiliation this week. He apologizes through the door that she thought it was a real proposal (yeah, dude, you can't apologize for that; you need to apologize for what you've done). He acknowledges that he probably should have led with deportation. You think?! She opens the door and says the maximum allowance is exceeded. She lets him in, and he says he's sorry and she has every right to be mad. She's not mad at him, though, just disappointed in herself for being so lonely and needy. She says she did what she always does, and let some silly romantic fantasy take over. He says he didn't know she still felt that way about him. She says she doesn't, that this isn't about him, and besides, he's moved on. He says he had to, since she pushed him away. He had to heal his heart and get over it. She asks if this is really the only thing he can do to stay here and do his work (because you cannot do art in Canada, you know). He says yeah, so she says she'll help him. But that there will be no love or sex, just marriage. He's all, "No sex?" She says no, because it needs to be like a real marriage. Hey, that's totally original! No one has ever made a joke about no sex during marriage.

Carlos enters the Latino Businessman of the Year banquet, and calls Gaby in behind him. She's in sunglasses. He asks her to take those off, since it's 8 at night. She does, but says people will think he's out with his anemic, lesbian sister. A lady walks up and Carlos introduces her as the lady who put this banquet together. Gaby introduces herself and says she doesn't actually look this hideous; she's just not wearing makeup so she can teach her daughter that beauty is on the inside. Hey, where are the girls? They come to the banquet in a separate car, I guess. The lady walks off, and Carlos asks Gaby to stop explaining herself. She doesn't want people thinking she condones this face. Carlos goes to find their table and when Gaby's offered champagne, she tells the waiter that she's not ill, she just isn't wearing makeup.

Rowdy sleepover at Katherine's. MJ says the candy apples are great and asks Mike if he and Evan (they're friends now, I guess) can have another. Mike says he needs to ask Katherine, so goes to find her. She's in her bedroom window bench gazing out the window. Mike tells her she's missing all the fun, including him cutting a candy apple out of a kid's hair. He tells her it's not as fun without her. She tells him since he was honest, she will be too. She says she got scared, and he asks about what. She says she was hosting a party with this amazing man and his adorable son, and they were like the perfect family until she realized they're not a family and it could all go away in an instant. He says he's not going anywhere, and she says he's not committing either. She asks if it's because he's still in love with Susan. He hesitates, which is ANNOYING, and says no, he already told her that. Right, but when it's said with hesitation and uncertainty, it's the sort of thing a person wonders about even after they've been told. Katherine says it must be her, then. He tells her he loves having her in his life, but he's not ready and doesn't know what else to say. She's not trying to get him to say anything, but she has to take care of herself. They hear loud crashing and Mike goes to check on the party.
