House of Mars. Keith tells Veronica that while Nish said she egged Dean Ed's Volvo, the car the Dean was driving that night was the mini-van; that's the car the police found in the lot. Does this mean Nish was lying? Not necessarily: Keith explains that the Widder Dean was driving the family Volvo that night, and suggests that she paid an unrevealed visit to her husband.
Max silently reads Ulysses as Cheliondy paints his toenails. You know, I love my husband, but I don't really want to touch his feet. I just don't get the obsession some girls have with painting their boyfriends' toenails. Cheliondy looks up at the silent Max and asks if he's okay. Max lies through his pink toenails that he is, hedging that he has to have the book read by Tuesday. Cheliondy understands. However, Max, much like Bilbo, can't let sleeping dragons lie, and tells Cheliondy that he saw a dragon on her purse the first time they met: "Guess you're a friend of dragons." Cheliondy nods sadly: "I like dragons." Dumb and Dumber -- formerly known as Bred and Frian -- walk in, sniggering, and warn that their suspicious R.A. is sniffing around since he saw Cheliondy's bags. Cheliondy thanks them for letting her hang out while she looks for a place to live and gets a job. Max goes back to reading. Dumb tells Cheliondy, "I might actually know of a job." Yeah, this is going nowhere good. See, Dumb's older brother needs a stripper for his bachelor party, so, you know...? Cheliondy looks crestfallen. God, no wonder Dumb and Dumber are overly familiar with a hooker search engine. "Hey, dudes, that's my girl you're talking to!" Max reminds them loudly. Cheliondy tells Dumb and Dumber that she's retired. Dumb realizes his mistake, sort of apologizes, and the two idiots snigger their way back out of the room. Cheliondy looks down at her lap until Max asks if she minds his asking her a question. Dude, don't do it. DON'T DO IT! He does it: he asks if she was lying at the airport about leaving her contact information at his hotel. She was. But she really wishes she had left it. Max looks down in disappointment and says he needs to take a walk. Cheliondy sits alone in his dorm room and cries.
