...right down the hallway, where Boring New Idiot Rachel and New Puck are currently flirting with each other. Yawn. New Puck admits he intentionally threw the dance audition in order to remain in New Finn's good graces, after which Boring New Idiot Rachel begs off lunch because She's Got An Eating Disorder, and with that, we're off to...

...Fake Drama School In New York, Temporarily Sober Dance Division. Dean Geyer enters to announce that, as Drunk Kate Hudson's currently sleeping off a hangover of truly epic proportions, he will be instructing the freshman class today. He orders everyone to pair up for a foxtrot, deliberately selecting The Horrible Hooker Of Broadway as his own partner after she tosses him some unnecessarily snotty and petulant attitude. She's still pissed off he slept with Drunk Kate Hudson, you see, even though she was supposedly still dating Bloaty The Gravy Clown at the time, and she continues to blow attitude about it directly into his face until he rather magnificently shuts her down like so: "Why do you care who I sleep with? We're not in high school anymore -- we're adults, making adult choices, and you made yourself unavailable. Don't be that crazy girl who expects people to read her mind." Preach! The Horrible Hooker protests that it doesn't take a mind reader to know how much she loathes Drunk Kate Hudson, and she argues that Dean Geyer should have avoided his recent dalliance with her "mortal enemy" based upon that fact alone. Dean Geyer, bless him, quickly realizes this is a debate he'll never, ever win given how batshit insane Old Idiot Rachel so clearly is, so he promises never to bang Drunk Kate Hudson again, the better to preserve whatever friendship he's got going with The Horrible Hooker. Not worth it, Dean Geyer. Oh, so totally not worth it.

In any event, with all that out of the way, the two get to chatting about their holiday plans, and wouldn't you know it? Dean Geyer's stuck in the city all by his lonesome that weekend, too! What are the odds? He offers to head out to my ancestral homeland to cook dinner for The Horrible Hooker and St. Gay Of Lima, supposedly because he knows what a lousy chef she is, but probably to get into her too-tight pants now that she's single again. Old Idiot Rachel eagerly agrees to the plan.
