In Rob's office, Coco's sitting on the couch as Rob informs her that Grosse Pointe got the WB's highest rating since the 7th Heaven episode where the Camdens almost couldn't find a Christmas tree and then did at the last minute. Heh. Courtney can't believe that this is all happening just because of the pictures. Rob tells her that the network is all over him to give Coco juicy storylines. "You are the new IT girl," he gushes. "Well," she says, "that still doesn't make it right. What they did." Rob, his maw full of Hawaiian Kona coffee, just goes, "Mmm. Mmm-mmm. Mmmm." I guess that means no. Coco's still thinking of suing them. Rob's all for it, knowing damn well she's not going to do a thing about it. Kev pops his head in and tells Coco that her agent's here to see her. Coco leaves as Rob congratulates himself on hiring another big-breasted bimbo.
Outside the office, Coco's manly agent is telling her that Adam Sandler wants Coco to be the female lead in his new movie. Adam's a cop who goes undercover as a female stripper. "It's Striptease meets Tootsie," the agent says. Pay attention to that whole Tootsie thing, lady. Cuz I think I see your Adam's apple. Adam wants Courtney to play the stripper he falls in love with. The fog in Coco's skull finally clears and she realizes that she'll be playing a stripper who has to take off all her clothes. "Yes," says Mrs. Doubtfire, "but it's totally integral to the story. And they're offering you $350,000." Suddenly, this whole "naked" thing is taking on a bright, shiny luster.
Over at Hunter's car, Dave's still washing away as Schmarce approaches him. When she says, "Dave," he turns suddenly and sprays her with water. I have no idea why he does this, nor why it's even in the show, but there it is. Dave decides that this is the moment to talk to Schmarce about their beach date, but before he can even get through the first sentence, Schmarce starts talking and doesn't really stop.
"Look, Dave," she sputters. "We're friends, right? And you know that the last thing I'd ever want is to see you get hurt." Dave's like, "Uh-huh?" "It's just..." continues Schmarce. "Sometimes, I think we pick people that we have no chance of getting. And that even if we did get them, they aren't right for us anyway." Dave, who thinks she's talking about THEM and not HIM and HUNTER, sort of sadly says, "Uh. Yeah. Okay. I get it. Yeah. I understand." "Do you?" Schmarce says. "Cuz I swear you shouldn't take it personally. Any more than I should take it personally that Johnny never liked me the way that I liked him." Are you listening, Mr. Roper? Dave just tells Schmarce that she better go dry off before she catches, like, pneumonia or something, and she leaves.
