Plot Synopsis
When Grace accompanies Leo to dinner with some "friends," she doesn't realize that he's tricked her and instead introduced her to his real parents -- and she soon regrets her earlier salty dialogue and suggestive attitude. Elsewhere, Jack is again confronted by Zandra -- his gruff acting teacher -- when he tries to showcase his meager talent in a class while a willing Will joins Karen in subjecting to a Botox facial injection.
