Room:  Baldies read Prof Van's letter.

JT's Room:  Neil feels hopeless.  JT wants to play baseball.  But first
they have to "bury" Prof. Van.

No Man's Land:  Syd and Gar try to talk/scream over the wall, but it isn't
working out.  Syd yells that they should go to Plan B.  Gar has no idea
what Plan B is.

Car:  Syd is on the phone to her mom.  She let's her know the wall has been
fixed.  Garrett finds Syd and complains it wasn't easy.  They decide to
call a truce.

Tool & Die:  Someone is working on a bike.  Jimmy arrives and works on his
bike.  As he reaches for a tool the other person drops a wrench(?) on his
hand.  Turns out this other person is Callie.

JTR:  JT is talking on the phone to Glory.  Neil interrupts their
conversation by tapping into the phone line.  Neil is still upset.  JT
cheers him up with some science trivia.  Glory and Katie come in.  Neil
blows up about how girls are a constant interruption.

T&D:  We find out Jimmy works there.  Fats (his boss) recalls the old days
-- he knew both their fathers.  Fats would like to be able to leave the
shop and just ride around.

Car:  Syd tries to explain her mom to Garrett.  Garrett doesn't understand
why, but Syd reminds him that she's not really welcome in the Booth house
either.  They try and think of a way to see each other.  Gar smiles his
smile, meaning only one thing -- he has an idea.  They'll use Mila.  Syd
smiles (she loves the word "use").

Car:  The deal is that Syd will make Mila her best friend and Gar will
start hanging around with Mila.  Syd wants to be more specific about what
is meant by "hanging" and she sets some ground rules:
        -- They can dance, but not too close
        -- He can call her, but not too long

JTR:  Neil is still carrying on about girls.

Car:    -- Garrett can't give her roses
        -- They can only hold hands
        -- They can go to the movies, but no love stories
        -- Horseback riding, but on separate horses
        -- Picnics, but in public only
        -- Garrett never had, does, or will care about Mila
        (There were several others not mentioned on screen)
Gar gives Syd one condition -- when Gar asks, Syd will stand up to her mom
and be seen with Gar.  Syd agrees.  Gar signs contract.

JTR:  Neil continues.  Katie says something and JT threatens her (in a
kidding-brotherly kind of way), he picks her up and places her on the
computer's mouse.  Big mistake.  This sent all their classfied stuff
throughout the world.  Neil and JT work frantically to fix things (ever
notice when Neil types his finger only stay in a small part of the
keyboard?).

Car:  Gar and Syd almost kiss but the phone rings.  It's Mila's mom.  Syd
and her mom are going over there for some tea.

T&D:  Fats offers Cal a job.  When he Jimmy if it's ok, Jimmy just leaves.
Fats tells Callie she can leave also.

Mila's House:  Countess (and Tutu) greet the mayor -- "It's like time
doesn't ass between friends."  Mila enters and then Syd arrives.  Countess
and the mayor go off to have tea.  Mila and Syd head upstairs (via
elevator) to get to Mila's room.

Mila's Room:  It's gigantic (I'm sure it's bigger than the apartment I live
in).  Syd acts impressed.  The room has cameras, a revolving door, etc.
Mila says she's happy to a friend.  She shows Syd that she can make her
shades go from night to day.  Syd looks unhappy.

Credits roll.
