Romeo's been slacking off with the business lately and since now everyone was at home to help him handle the customers, he agreed to open the salon for a few hours even on a Sunday afternoon. He didn't have to wait long for the people to pop up and Angela helped dealing with them.

She was surprised when Rick showed up and instead of getting a haircut, he told her to call him later for some juicy info. She was confused what could he possibly have to tell her, but he refused to say it right there with all the other customers around.

Ajay and Blake agreed to stay away from bigger venues for now and visited a smaller bar in town. It was cozy enough to eat and have a drink, while amateurs get on the stage.

Rick happened to be there, having a dramatic monologue about friendship and betrayal.

Unfortunately, the husbands continued not having a great luck this week. This time a salad ended up on Ajay's head and Blake had to try his best not to burst out laughing.

Rick paid his old friend an unexpected visit, but it wasn't exactly a nice one. He called Dustin out on cutting ties with him after marrying into the Capps, even though they used to hang out together a lot before college.

Dustin did not approve of Rick's wild lifestyle and didn't want to be seen in his company by Juliette's family. He worked hard on his image of an ambitious young businessman and being friends with thugs could only ruin it or make the Capps sniff around his job.

Needless to say, Rick did not appreciate being lectured about what he do with his life by someone like Dustin. He called the old friend out on his hypocrisy and reminded him who introduced him to Juliette in the first place.

Rick: Reconsider who your allies are or a friendly little bird might tell your wifey about what you do for life, punk.

Sam was an unfortunate witness to the exchange and since he worked for both of the men, he chose not to say anything and pretend he didn't hear anything. He realized his employers might be dangerous and it's safer to just keep your mouth shut.

The party went on for hours and Ripp couldn't thank his husband enough for organizing it behind his back. It felt like being in college again and everyone forgot about their adult life problems, even if just for one night.

Only Lilith and Violet ended up throwing hands in the kitchen, putting Rick's "fine china" in danger. It seems like the two couldn't decide who is Rick's bestie and had to resolve it with violence.

Violet might've been sporty growing up, but Lilith had more experience with brawling defeated her way quicker than Violet would like to admit.

Thankfully, despite the incident in the kitchen and John's poor attempt at busting the party, it ended up going well and the Vandermorgans had to pack their friends into taxis in the middle of the night. After making sure everyone departed safely, they could finally enjoy what was left of their night.

With the week at the Vandermorgan's over, next one goes to the Caliente condo.

John showed up, ready to bust a loud party, because that's the only thing he's good at these days.

And yet he changed his mind before he even reached the front door. He got back into his car and drove away, pretending he doesn't hear the music and laughter from inside the house.

Thankfully, no one even noticed he was outside and everyone was too busy having drunk talks over Rick's pizza.

Johnny: I know Ripp isn't really my brother, but he always kinda was and now that you're married to him, you're like my brother-in-law, but also not...

Rick: Does that mean I have to be on your family reunions...?

Rick knew well that alcohol flows down smoother with some grease and fixed up a nice snack for the guests.

Ripp was too excited about having so many cool people in his house and reminded himself of the good old dorm days. The difference is now he actually had to worry about cleaning up the mess his friends make.

The whole party moved to Ripp's music room and soon the whole space was filled with "bubble" steam thanks to Lilith and Hal. It made Violet believe she was a rock star and she tried shredding it on Ripp's guitar.

To end the Sunday properly, decided to throw a little party and invite both his and Ripp's friends over for some beer, snacks and good music.

Coincidentally, Ripp brought Hal over from work as well.

He didn't expect to see all of his friends at home and no one was talking about babies and diapers this time. Ophelia might've been a little jealous seeing Ripp being close friends with Lilith. Or she just had one cup of beer too many.

Johnny definitely needed to slow down with the drinks.

On the last day of the week, Ripp woke up feeling even more flirty and loveable than usual. He was ready to bother his husband for the rest of the day, at least until he has to leave for work.

He really hoped he could achieve his dream before the end of the week, but just hyping himself up with music was enough to make his day better.

Rick needed to work on his creativity and figured there's no one better out there to help him with it, than his own husband. Ripp didn't expect he'd be able to tutor anyone, but happily showed Rick the ropes of making music.
