Gloria is hosting an annual fundraiser, the first time that Rodrigo will be presented to this group of regular and very wealthy and usually generous donors. To continue those donations, she wants Rodrigo to make a good impression. But first, he has to show up, he who has gone AWOL. Already incensed that Hailey is working as his personal assistant, Gloria vows to place Hailey's head on the proverbial chopping block again if she can't produce Rodrigo at the fundraiser suitably attired in black tie. Hailey knows that Rodrigo is at the library, but without his cell phone, she, with Lizzie's help, needs to retrieve him personally. Rodrigo, who is trying to get in touch metaphysically with some music and its long deceased composer, may have other priorities than getting to the fundraiser on time. In the meantime, Thomas, with Gloria, is holding down the fort at the fundraiser, he who can use his own charms on the donors. An incident at the fundraiser makes Thomas critically evaluate his role within the organization.
