Music is playing and waiters are setting up the room for the Ball.
Roger tells Amanda that Alex's idea about going to the Ball is a great idea. He says Amanda knew how to cover for him when Alex almost caught him. It was a great act at the right time – it was an act wasn't it. She says yes, anything for the cause. She says she will do whatever it takes to get what she wants. Roger says that all of Springfield will catch their interest at the Ball and as soon as the Ball gets going, they will exit and continue their search. Then they will have an alibi. The papers are somewhere on the property, he says they need to find them and the future is theirs.
Buzz is at the diner he see the closed sign on the door. He comes in and asks why they are closed. They tell him about the Ball.

Reva and Billy are talking, she says that Josh has no idea why she wanted to see him. She starts telling him about Sarah and her baby. She says she needs his help. He interrupts her and tells her to stop living in the past. He tells her that Josh loves her and she needs to light a fire under Josh's "sorry Lewis butt." He tells her that they are going to the ball together and they'll give the town something to talk about for the next 60 years.
