After mentioning that Erica had dinner with Palmer, Vanessa goes on to insult Erica's business sense and claimed that Enchantment was mismanaged. Under the bed, Erica was furious, but managed to keep silent. Vanessa gave David a nice pair of cufflinks, which he recognized as a bribe to get him to be more accepting of her marriage to Palmer.

David quickly hustled his mother out the door. Rather than being upset, Erica was excited by the intrigue and suggested they use code names from one of her father's movies to help be sure they weren't caught in the future.
