- 04
Vince is taking big risks, listening to Turtle rather then E, Ari and his financial adviser: without a new role in the pocket, he is tempted to buy a Hollywood house, and one of true star status, which means an outrageous price, a multiple of his $1,000,000 limit, but the idea of being the next owner of Marlon Brandon's former villa with private pool is irresistible. Yet Vince still won't commit to sign for Aquaman, actually declares he won't play a ridiculous 'cartoon character' and seems decided against the part when he sees the costume design, E and Ari must pull all the stops to change his mind.

The boys carefully get fancy party dress at Vinces expense, except E who pays his own clothes and refuses to waste good money on labels like Armani; when he meets Sloan, he does dress up, making the others warn him he's setting himself up for another scorned crush. Drama and Turtle get stuck on an old peoples table and regret having eaten little before the party as they don't get to the yummy stuff having missed the synagogue service with appetizers, nor knew they had to order, so it's kosher vegetarian leftovers, till a waitress shows them the kids buffet, just what they wanted, but are startled to see 13 year-olds blowing weed.
