Sarah is having doubts about going on her first date with Michael Simpson to the school dance. Then Gwendolyn Pierce, Charles' old girlfriend, arrives and meets Jamie, Sarah and Adam. She explains her family moved to California, and she broke up with Charles to attend school near her family. Charles is elated to be with her and plans a fun-filled week so she won't want to leave. Gwendolyn asks Buddy if Charles has been dating, as she is seeing someone very special in California -- Richard. Buddy becomes upset and asks why she is visiting Charles, and she explains to confirm whether she loves him...since Richard asked her to marry him and Charles has not. watch
When Charles sees Jamie in ghastly new-wave makeup, he tells her she absolutely cannot go to Club Dread, an after-hours dance club. Sarah sides with Jamie, not because she wants to go, but because she feels a need to protest Charles' making such a dictatorial decision. The two of them are devising a scheme to sneak out for the evening when Adam overhears the conversation and threatens to give away their plan. Jamie promises him a date and a kiss from the prettiest girl in school, and he joins in the plan. watch
