It’s Halloweekend and Benny is still on the outs with Carmen so he and Miles have been getting… closer. Carmen and Hailee reconcile just as the latter enters her bad girl era. Grace calls Peter out for treating her like an assistant. Tensions (sexual and otherwise) rise at the annual Chem Party. But who will go home with who (or is it whom)? This episode is so good.
