The Palm Woods
After all the planning and scheming, Kendall and the rest of Big Tim Rush were successfully smuggled out of Rocque Records. All it took was eight different vans, twelve different costume changes, and one incredibly annoying fan that almost blew their entire cover. They were all laughing at how she mistook Carlos for Selena Gomez and just about caused a riot with people wanting 'her' autograph and wanting 'her' to sing them some songs. Carlos hasn't said a word on the ride back to the Palm Woods because he is sulking about the whole incident. They pull up in front of the Palm Woods and look at each other before piling out of the van to meet their collective fates. Kendall is the first one to disappear to go find his mother and then the rest of them go in search of their girls.
Apartment 2J
Kendall quietly opens the door not wanting to wake anybody up when a small projectile is suddenly wrapped around his waist. Katie is squeezing the life out of him by hugging him so tightly; Kendall takes a moment to get his bearings and looks around at the apartment and notices his mother lying on the orange couch. Kendall finally manages to extricate himself from his sobbing little sister and makes his way over to his mother's side. "I'm so sorry you had to see that mom" Kendall begins in a soothing tone. "Nobody knew exactly what was going on but it was all just a publicity stunt to help increase Big Time Rush's exposure. I wanted to call you but they took our phones and wouldn't let us call anybody" Kendall says squeezing his mother's hand. A tear leaks down his eye when she doesn't respond; he slowly turns around only to be tackled from behind by a completely healed Mrs. Knight. She is berating him for his carelessness and everything else but all Kendall hears is that his mother is feeling better. He endures the hysterics for a little while longer before excusing himself so he can go find the other members of the band.
Almost as soon as he shuts the door he feels a stinging slap come across his face. He looks around expecting to see Camille but instead sees the irate face of Jo in front of him. "How could you?" Jo breaks out in a tearful voice. "I trusted you; I even went down to the damn police station to find out what happened to you. These creepy guys tried to take advantage of me down there, but I endured it all because I thought I was helping you. Then I read the interview you gave online when you confirmed you were single. That just proved I was being an idiot because I was clinging onto something that obviously never mattered to you. Fuck you!" Jo Taylor screams in one final act of defiance and leaves Kendall standing there all alone. He shakes his head because all the women in his life seem to be pissed at him right now.
The Palm Woods Lobby
Carlos is sitting there waiting for Gwen to come through the lobby because he knows she has an appointment to get to today. He doesn't have to wait for long because Gwen is soon walking through the lobby listening to her music player. Carlos sneaks up on her and scares her to death. She nearly falls over when she sees the Latino boy standing in front of her. She takes her ear buds out and looks at him and says "What in the hell are you doing? We share and awesome night together then you disappear and don't even tell me what is happening. Where on earth have you been and why haven't you let me know where you have been?" She stands there with her hands on her hips waiting for a forthcoming answer. Carlos goes on to detail their last couple of days including his Selena Gomez impersonation. "That story alone makes it al worth it, I forgive you" Gwen says pulling Carlos close. They spend the rest of the day hanging out and catching up on their last couple of days.
The Palm Woods Pool
James is searching high and low for Suzanne but finally gives up and sits down on one of the lounge chairs that are set up around the pool. He runs his fingers through his hair when all of a sudden he hears two people arguing. He looks up and sees Suzanne arguing with that fake looking Landon douche bag. He strides over to them hoping to make things better when he sees her rear back and slap Landon hard. James stops in his tracks as he watches Landon stalk away nursing his hurt pride. James goes up to Suzanne with a huge smile on his face. The smile quickly fades however as he notices the Suzanne is not smiling back at him. "If you hadn't left you could have taken care of this for me. You know what I'm sick of always running on James time." She pushes her way past a stunned James who is still trying to articulate his opening statement. He stays in that frozen position for most of the day.
