Faye is making everyone play party games like "Pass the Orange". Faye thinks she's drunk, but Cameron whispers to the rest that the punch is alcohol free!
Madge and Helen come in and look on in amazement as Doug and Pam try to pass the orange under their chins. The whole game is really an excuse for Faye to get up close and personal with Jim.
Walter's House
Walter has given Brad a cheque for $50,000!
WALTER: Just my way of saying thank you.
LUCY: You're welcome!
But Brad is stunned and says he can't accept the money, even though Walter can afford it. He says he only did what anyone else would do. Lucy tries to talk Brad down, but he won't be moved. He says there is one thing he'd like though - a doggy bag to take some of the leftover food home!
Jim and Faye are passing the orange. Pam comes in and tells Faye that Gaby is stuck at the boutique. Faye says they can just have another party another time and everyone looks extremely delighted at that prospect(!) A game of blind man's buff is instigated, so they blindfold Faye and then they all sneak out!
FAYE: Am I warm?
CAMERON: Stone cold.

Brad is sanding down some surfboards when Lucy comes over to moan at him. Just then, a posh car draws up with Walter in it - he's come for a chat with Brad. This time he's come to offer Brad a job in his firm - Schofield Industries. He reckons Brad is honest, trustworthy and resourceful and would be suitable for a job in the print room. If he's good, he could work his way up from there. Brad isn't sure, but agrees to think about it.
LUCY: This is a golden opportunity! People would kill for a chance like this!

JIM: Terrific(!)

DOUG:(looking in the mirror) I never realised my face was so full of character!

BRAD: Relax, Dad, I'm not desperate!

Jim has come over to see Faye. She's delighted to see him and says he doesn't owe her any apologies. Jim tells Faye that he gets the impression that she wants them to be more than friends. Faye tells him he's mistaken - she's got no intention of starting a romantic liaison with him or anyone else. She's clearly upset though and when Jim has gone she sighs deeply.

Dorothy pops around to borrow a handbag. Doug is still flexing his muscles and asks Dorothy if she's come over for a private viewing of him before he becomes public property!
PAM: Just ignore him, he's flipped his lid!
In the bedroom, Pam and Dorothy look through the closet and start chatting about men and reminiscing about the 1970s. Pam takes out a wig and says the hair is very much Doug's hair colour. She gets a germ of an idea.

Lucy is very pleased that Brad has taken the job with Walter. She hugs him tightly, says how proud she is of him and kisses him on the cheek.

Brad touches his cheek where Lucy kissed him and looks pensive.
