Rico throws on his suit jacket on the way to Vanessa's front door, thanking her for letting him stay. They stand on the threshold smiling at each other, and then Vanessa starts kissing Rico. He doesn't exactly resist. He doesn't have to worry about having Frito-breath, you see.
Billy's in Nate and Brenda's bedroom digging around through all the coats until he finds his own and starts putting it on. Claire comes in and asks what he's doing, and he says he has to get out of there. Claire doesn't want to leave: "It's my brother's birthday. There's a bird in the kitchen." Billy angrily asks her if being with other people is ever too much for her to deal with. "Yeah, like right now," she says meanly. Especially people who are off their meds, eh, Claire?
Keith and David sneak into the kitchen, where the bird is perched on the counter near the open window. As Keith approaches, it flies out. Relieved, Keith shuts the window while David grabs the wine bottle off the counter and fills the empty glass he's carrying. "Good job," he says, savoring a little mouthfeel.
