Later, sitting around the table, where Patty munches on leftover food and they all drink wine, Patty laments, "I can't believe it. I can't believe Jordan Catalano was here and I missed him." Hallie says, "And we're talkin' gorgeous." Patty can't believe it: "I miss everything. What is he like?" Graham's all, "You know." And Patty cries out to the heavens: "No! I don't know! That's why I'm asking!" Graham flounders for a bit, and then Hallie insults the male ability to describe people, and takes a shot: "Fairly out of it. Not unintelligent. Sort of a stray puppy. You know, the kind where you're always trying to ease...their pain? He may even be a halfway decent person, but let me tell you: trouble. Way too gorgeous." Patty says thank you, and means it, though she won't be thanking Hallie later when Hallie steals her husband...in the non-existent second season of this show.
Later, in the driveway, Patty and Graham wave goodbye to their guests as they drive off in the Husband-Stealing-Mobile. "She's kinda loony, isn't she?" says Graham, covering his ass. "Oh, she's fun," says Patty, trying to pretend that she remembers what fun is. The talk about Brad for a second, and then the crazy restaurant scheme. Graham insists he's not getting involved with it, but Patty cuts it down anyway: "Do you know the failure rate for new restaurants? It's like the riskiest business there is." Graham points out that he just said he wasn't doing it, in a tone of voice that suggests, "Why must you predict my failure at everything?" He goes on, "Some restaurants must succeed. After all, people have to eat somewhere." Patty blathers on some more about gambling with what passes for their savings, right before Angela will need to go to college, and blah blah blah...but, oh, wait, she stops herself: "Never mind. I'm just going to drop this whole subject." Graham says, "Without running it into the ground? You?" Then he kisses her. To make sure she shuts up, probably.
The Only Bathroom At School. The recently-formed crime-fighting team of Sharon and Rayanne are discussing the only topic of mutual interest to both of them: Angela. Sharon says, "I heard Angela went home sick. A reaction to her flu shot?" Rayanne says, "Fake. She's faking. She just can't face Jordan Catalano." Sharon demands to know what Jordan did to her, and Rayanne says he didn't do anything: "He's just mad 'cause she won't have sex with him. It's so sad. To see her make, like, this big deal, over this thing that's, like, over in three seconds." I would make an observation about the quality of the sex that Rayanne is apparently having, but I don't have to, because some random girl comes out of a stall and says, "Well I like when they take, like, a really long time." Another random stall girl says, "Who are you kidding, you've never even done it?" First girl retorts, "So? Neither have you!" Rayanne decides to mess with the Stall Girls and says, naughtily: "I like it when they take an ice cube, and run it all the way up your body, until you think you'll lose your mind." Sharon smiles appreciatively at the performance, and the other girls' jaws drop. "Someone seriously did that? To you?" Rayanne says, "Mickey Rourke did it." Leaving the other girls behind to continue their pow-wow, Sharon is all, "So she's, like, scared? To have sex?" Rayanne says she doesn't know. "All I know is that she's hot for him." One of the stall girls calls out from behind them, "Mickey Rourke? Does he, like, go to this school?" Rayanne makes a vampire noise for some reason, and leaves the bathroom with Sharon.
