==Episode Summary==
===Opening scenes===
The episode opens with Dean waking up beside Rachel for the first time in the new house. Here he attempts to talk to her, however she simply gives him the silent treatment. Dean doesn't appear to be bothered by this and chooses to ignore her back by going downstairs to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Dean talks aloud to himself when Blanket suddenly enters the room. She ends up staring at him in silence; unsure of how she was supposed to speak to him. Dean attempts to make conversation with her as well when Alexa enters the room soon after. Alexa immediately gets out some cereal and sits at a nearby table while Dean attempts to talk to her. She, like the others, ignores him too, so he decides to grab her head and talk in her ear to get her attention. Soon after Rachel enters the room, where she finally speaks to Dean. Here she simply tells him that he made a mistake making Jane leave and that he should get her back. Dean doesn't seem to agree with her at first as he asks Blanket and Alexa for their opinion on Jane. He also reassures the others that they had a bunch of new potential roommates lining up outside.
The scene then cuts to the four friends interviewing potential new roommates. They end up interviewing one woman with a severe tap-dancing hobby, a sweaty obese butcher who aimed to store his raw produce in their house, and a young man who seemed to be obsessed with the number "69". Once the later leaves, Rachel makes Dean go and find Jane immediately to bring her back home, and he finally caves in.
===Plot A: Dean's tough tasks===
Dean finds Jane sitting at the Scuba rank with all of her luggage packed when he approaches her. She doesn't appear happy to see him however as he attempts to apologise. The two share a little conversation until Jane finally agrees to move back- under certain conditions. She makes a promise to Dean that she will only move back only if he agreed to do what she tells him. While reluctant at first, he finally agrees, and asks her about the tasks at hand. First, Jane makes a suggestion that she could refer to Dean by his full name "Deanolia", given how much she knew he hated it. After he accepts, she assigns him the second task: that he must check into a hotel for her using her belongings, as well as buy some female products at the hotel convenience store for her. He reluctantly accepts this as well as the two head for the hotel.
Dean enters the hotel carrying Jane's luggage bags and heads straight to the reception desk. Here he tells the secretary about his intention to check in on behalf of Jane. Just as he does this a security guard nearby stops him to go through his bags. With Jane in ear-shot, the security guard completes a check on Dean's bags and gets confused when he notices the female belongings inside. Dean defends himself by telling him that the bag belonged to a friend. The guard accepts his excuse, albeit with skepticism, and the secretary hands him the keys for the room. Dean passes the keys back to Jane before he reminds him of the other task she told him to do.
Dean goes to pay for Jane's female products (notably face creams and tampons) at the cashier desk in the convenience store. He once again defends himself from them when the cashier begins to question him. After his items get bagged and they get paid for, the cashier reminds him that the store currently had a deal that one purchase of a particular facial product allowed him to receive a free leg waxing and pedicure. Dean declines and begins to leave the store before Jane interrupts him; insisting on him getting the waxing and pedicure. Dean looks towards the cashier in a horrified way before finally accepting; walking off with her.
Dean and Jane walk side-by-side towards Goody Gumdrops, engrossed in a conversation about Dean's legs and feet. Once they arrive at the store, Jane tells him to purchase and consume an "Everything Shake". He does, and orders one off of Alexa who makes it for him. While he is waiting for the shake, a stranger ends up making a comment towards his painted toenails. Once he receives his shake he goes back outside to Jane, he takes one sip of it and offers the rest to Jane. Jane instructs him to finish the whole thing, however. He proceeds to drink it while he asks her about his next task. Jane instructs him to come with her to the amusement park.
At the amusement park, Dean and Jane are seen hanging out together (revealing that they were already there for over an hour) when Dean finally asks him whether or not she would accept his invitation back in the house yet. She responds by telling him to complete one final task- a ride on the Flamethrower 5000 rollercoaster. Despite being horrified at the thought, he decides to do it anyway. Rachel, Alexa and Blanket later join them when they find out the news. They have a talk with Dean while he waits a little in the line; before he finally gets let in. Before long Dean ends up riding the rollercoaster.
After the ride, Dean is greeted by his friends while he immediately runs off to throw up. While he's throwing up, Jane finally accepts his invitation and agrees to move back into their house. Jane ends up leaving to go to the hotel.
===Plot B: The Everything Shake===
Alexa is seen dressed in her work uniform about to leave for work (at Goody Gumdrops Candy Store) when Blanket interrupts her by asking her about her job. Alexa tells her, and Blanket becomes convinced to want to work with her. Alexa decides to bring Blanket along to work with her in order for her to get a job.
Alexa ends up arriving to work twenty minutes early with Blanket when she immediately greets her boss. She tells him about Blanket's intention to get a job at her place. Her boss ends up providing her with an on the spot interview and gets quickly convinced at Blanket's answers. He soon hires Blanket and instructs Alexa to "show her the ropes". Alexa provides her of a quick tour of the front of the store.
A little while later the boss is seen talking to all of Goody Gumdrops employees in a meeting. Here he tells his staff that he wanted them to come up with ways in order for the store to get more customers before dismissing them. After this he instructs Alexa to dispose of the expired items and for Blanket to continue to work the cash register. Blanket somehow receives a blender from a customer and places it on the ground, and Alexa begins working on her task by carrying the expired products in a container over to the garbage can near the cash register. Alexa then chats with Blanket about her day while tipping the contents into the garbage can, however some products end up in the blender on the ground instead. Soon after a customer asks Blanket to get him a particular product behind her. When she does, she accidentally kicks her toe on the blender, causing it to turn on and blend the products in it. Her and Alexa end up causing a racket when this occurs, causing their boss to immediately approach them and ask them what they were doing. Alexa shows him the blender and the blended product inside it. The boss then decides to taste it and ends up liking it a lot. He then asks the girls which one of them was responsible for it, and they both answer themselves at the same time. He ends up calling the substance in the blender an "Everything Shake", and instructs the girls to make some more and sell it.
A few hours later the front counter at Goody Gumdrops is seen packed with customers ordering the "Everything Shake". Alexa ends up serving Dean in the middle of the rush. Once he receives his milkshake and leaves, the boss pulls Blanket aside and tells her that he was immediately promoting her. This understandably makes Alexa feel furious. She ends up getting into an argument with Blanket over this, resulting in her leaving (she also wanted to leave due to receiving the news that Dean was going to ride the Flamethrower 5000).
Blanket ends up following Alexa to the amusement park, however she ignores her at first. Following the events of Plot A, Alexa makes a comment about Dean's attractiveness before walking off. Blanket approaches her once more and attempts to apologise to her, telling her that she was going to quit her job the following day. This makes Alexa forgive her. The two share an embrace before Alexa herself gets the thrill to ride the Flamethrower 5000 as well. She ends up in the coaster and takes off. Blanket and Rachel suddenly get overwhelmed and begin throwing up in the nearby trash can.
==Continuity==
===WildSide===
*This episode, along with Part 1, serves as a homage to the original pilot episode Wild Pilot, therefore there are many similarities, parallels and references to it. In Part 2:
**Dean mentions the name plate that were posted above his bed in the original episode.
**Both episodes include a scene where the characters spend their first night living in the house together, as well as a breakfast scene the following morning.
**At one stage Alexa can be seen eating a bowl of cereal with a tiny cereal box and milk carton next to it. This is a subtle reference to the aforementioned breakfast scene from the original, where April is forced to consume the small box of cereal and milk she purchased.
**The expired ingredients at the candy store is a reference to the expired food that the friends found on their first day in the original. At one point Mr Fowler (Alexa's boss) pours expired milk into the Everything Shake; a clear reference to the expired milk that was found in the original.
**Both episodes end with a whole bunch of characters throwing up.
*When Rachel refuses to talk to him, Dean references their fight from Wild Valentine's Day.
*The gag of Blanket posing with her poster is similar to a gag with Rachel posing with her autographed picture from Wild Soup Seller.
