Summary: Elliot's school dance is coming up and he can't get a date. So Jack convinces Grace to go as Elliot's date, but once Elliot spots the girl he wanted to take at the dance, Jack works on getting him the nerve to ask her to dance. Grace meanwhile sits on the sidelines and decides to tell her story of lost love to some other girls.

After Jack embarrasses Elliot by dancing in front of all the kids, Elliot hides in the hall and is approached by the girl he wanted to take to the dance. They talk a bit and soon the two are slow dancing.

Meanwhile, Karen is annoying Will by calling him with fake emergencies, but when real FBI agents show up regarding Stan, Will doesn't believe it and mocks the agents until Karen turns on the radio, revealing that Stan was arrested.
