Tyler is shocked to learn about Piper's deception when she must confess having faked parental consent and decides to take mark's advice to opt for the short pain: dumping a lover without perspective he can't trust, just when her parents consider permission just for the prom, as Xanthe's father cued them. Mark tells Belinda to leave Steph, who firmly waved her attempt to discredit him, alone but worries when she uses Paul's bribe and her father's airplane to buy Charlie's favor. Sheila scolds Gary for promising his daughter a prom dress, as they can't afford her exclusive taste.
