Rio called up Jerrica who seems to have lost her feeligs for him. They talked for a little while where Jerrica sounded a little distant, which Rio noticed. He invited her to dinner that night but she replied that she had a business meeting and took a rain check for the next night. Rio hung up the phone irritated and hoped to maybe find Jem for dinner that evening he headed into Starlight Music and is now sitting at his desk. After a jog, Aja returned to find Ashley had made lunch for the others. Aja sent Ashley off to start cleaning up the mess from her instigated party the night before. Kimber woke up and headed down for breakfast. Jerrica came down and gave Ashley a stern talking to and told her to clean until the other girls woke up to help her then headed in to the office. She arranged for Lina Lerner, Randy James, Astral, and the Blue Bloods to perform in the benefit. She also called Green and left them a message asking them to perform in the benefit. She also called Phantasy and spoke to Pixie to also ask Phantasy to perform. Back at the Mansion, Kimber asked if anyone wanted to go shopping. Aja said she wanted to stay behind and watch Ashley. Kimber headed of to the mall on her own and ran into Stormer. They had lunch and then Kimber got soup dumped on her and so she had to go home asking stormer to come over to go swimming later. Stormer agreed and then Kimber called Video who called Danse and both were invited over. They both agreed and Video came over to pick up Danse. Aja went for a soak in the hot tub. Kimber invited Astral and Radio over as well. After confirming that Green would do the benefit, Jerrica headed across the street to talk to Riot and find out if he and the Stingers were doing the benefit. Video went inside after swimming a bit to offer Ashley a job cleaning. Stormer asked Kimber if she would be interested in reuniting for a song for the benefit. Radio also came over to the pool party. Jem got tired of waiting for Riot and left him a note before headig back to the Mansion. When she got there she found Riot had left a message on jerrica's cell phone saying that they would do the benefit. After Kimber had finished her phone call with Sage she went back agreed to do the song for the benefit and then jumped into the pool. Shana went off to meet one of Anthony's friends, Deon, that morning. He and Shana worked out a line of fashions for her(post367). Then she headed home to meet the others at the party. She also convinced Deon to perform at the benefit. He is a rapper. Then she went back to he pool party and told Jem about it to which she was thrilled. After her phone call to Astral, Jerrica headed off to her dinner date with Lark.

Victor spent 6 months in jail before his lawyers got him out. He went to the Americas and worked his way up to become a big stage theater producer under the name Robert De Coronado. He invited jem and the holograms to the opening and premire party of his most recent show. He sent Danse 6 dozen roses to Haven House.

Astral woke and went to breakfast and wound up meeting Techrat who helped her with an illusian she was working on. She wound up offering him a job working with her to which he accepted. Later in the day she and techrat began working and Astral called Jerrica to chat. After calling many numbers, she asked if she could get the band together and come down to look at the new show.

Pizzazz woke up and called Bobby Stark to check on things and then Roxy to find out where she had been the night before. Roxy offered no explaination but agreed to get over there at 2. Pizzazz then went over to the office to find out if Eric had talked to Jerrica about the benefit yet and blew up at him when he blew her off for the phone. Jetta ran into Jem as she was going to see Riot and told her to tell Jerrica that they would do the benefit since Eric had obviously forgotten to call her. Jetta informed Pizzazz of this and proceeded to get the Misfits minus Stormer, together and headed out to the lunch of Eric and Green. She began arguing with Eric and informing the new band of what a cruddy manager he was.

After a friendly heartfelt moment when Sara assured Lark he stood a chance with Jerrica, then chasing her away with a pillow he called Starlight Mansion to talk to Jerrica. They discussed dinner and decided that Lark would pick her up at 8 and they'd go french. Vine/Jim woke up with a sore ankle from his little stunt the night before. He wandered down to breakfast to see Kylie/Absinthe lookin pretty bad from the night before as well. She took some tylenol and the two of them waited for Lark to get of the phone. When he did he explained the contracts a little better. Absinthe expressed her interest more in Stingers Sound and the money. Most of Green is leaning towards Starlight though. Feeling forced, Kylie lost her temper and ran out to call Eric and meet him for lunch. Green ran out to the car after her. She called Eric and said that he would rather meet with the whole band. She turned the car around and headed back when he said he would be sending a car for her and the band. While they waited they decided they would do the benefit and Lark called Jerrica to let her know. Then the limo arrived and they headed off to meet Eric at the restaurant. After the Misfits showed up, there were some harsh words between them and Eric. Green decided that this was not the best time to talk and they left. Eric, angry at the Misfits threatened to offer Stormer her own contract and break up the Misfits.

Rapture woke up and headed into the studio to practice a bit. Riot too headed in to find Rapture when he woke up. Minx too woke up too and headed into the studio. Riot asked them if they wanted to do the benefit. After her stubborness earlier, Minx easily agreed. After the rehersal Minx went home and was practicing at her synthisizers.

Satine had sent the contracts out to be "translated and after she woke up ran down to see if they had come back yet. Sage also didn't look so good after his drinking race with kylie the night before but apparently felt better then he looked. Fairy/Willow woke up and met with the others before heading back to take a quick shower and head off to a little cafe down the block. She felt a little uncomfortable in the room since she did remember what happened between Sage and herself the night before while Sage on the other hand, does not. He thinks it was a dream. Moments after Willow left the contracts arrived and Sage and Satine looked them over for a bit. Eric called to set up a dinner date with the band and after coming to some terms with her feelings and deciding that she'd just ignore the kiss in general, Fairy returned while Satine was on the phone. When Satine got off the phone they had a discussion about the contracts where Satine told them that it came down to more money vs creative control. Everyone but Satine was leaning more towards Starlight Music. After Fairy expressed her interest in wrapping up the conversation Satine said that they should figure it out and then come get her and she went off to her room. Fairy told Satine to call Jerrica quick to do the benefit before leaving to go to the mall for some Christmas shopping with Pixie. Sage and Drake had a "heartfelt" discussion about Willow where Sage assured Drake that he was not after her. Then he went outside for a smoke before going back and calling Kimber and she mentioned something about calling her for dinner if he wanted before leaving. Pixie confronted Willow about the kiss she had witnessed the night before and told her to stay away. Drake went up to play a game of darts with Satine. They agreed that if Satine won, he'd kiss her feet in front of anyone but if HE won, she'd have to give him a kiss under the mistletoe. After a furious game of darts, Drake wound up beating her. She, not wanting to have Drake giving her kisses a bad rep, gave him a good one.

Danse awoke and went into Haven House to find Cisco waiting for her and asking to take her to lunch the following day to which she accepted. After working for a while she went home to get the phone call from Video about going to the party. Danse agreed, jumped in the shower and then the two of them headed off to the mansion after making a quick stop at haven house because she had gotten a quick phone call saying she had a package waiting for her which were the roses from "Robert."

After agreeing not to talk business, they began small talk and Jerrica again realized that she needed to break up with Rio. Not wanting to start any sort of relationship off on the wrong note, she confessed to Lark that Rio was her boyfriend but also that things were not going well and that she planned to end it. After he told her that he understoond he offered her some candy in the form of jelly beans and asked her if she would like to go out with him again. Jerrica agreed and told him she'd call him when she had delt with Rio. They paid and left. Lark kissed Jerrica on the cheek and they went their seperate ways.

Finished with their Christmas shopping, Fairy and Pixie headed home. Fairy decided to go find Satine and apologize to her for being so short earlier and wound up walking in on Drake collecting his winnings from Satine so to speak. She angrily stalked out of the room. Satine swatted Drake away angry that they had upset Willow and left the room as well. Pixie saw Fairy come running out of the room all upset and asked her what was wrong and after a brief interruption from Sage, Fairy told them both that she had seen Drake and Satine kissing. Pixie flipped out very aggrevated that the band was going to suffer and then break up over all these little incedents. She then considered leaving Phantasy thinking that they didn't have the same desire to play music as they did. Aggrevated Fairy went to rest up til dinner with Eric. Satine went to see her. Fairy got all defensive as Satine tried to explain what had happened. Eric called and postponed dinner to day 3 and changed it to lunch.

Pizzazz went to deal with Eric. Pizzazz went out bought some lingerie, and then took the green out of her hair. She then went and humbled herself to Eric hoping to... fix their communication... one on one so to speak. Eric, while slightly flattered, decided he wanted to keep their relationship strictly professional. Pizzazz was a little shocked that he would reject her and so again tried to talk him into a slightly less professional situation. Eric once again shot her down.
