Del and Nessa offer to share their babysitter for the night, allowing Gavin and Thea to attend the party without worrying about their daughters. Both are nervous, anticipating intimacy after the party.
When Thea arrives, the WAGs immediately snub her. Nessa explains that Rachel is upset because she has been fighting with her husband, Jake, and blames Thea for it. The other players and their wives refuse to sit with Gavin and Thea, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. Despite this, they get through the awards ceremony, during which the team recognizes Gavin for his grand slam. Afterward, all the players stand to honor their partners with a kiss. After a moment of awkwardness, Gavin and Thea kiss. They decide to leave the party early, but Thea heads to the bathroom first.
On her way, Thea overhears Rachel talking with several other players’ wives. The group insults Gavin and Thea, calling them bad luck, and Rachel cruelly mocks Gavin’s stutter. Unable to stay silent, Thea confronts them, warning Rachel not to insult Gavin again. Drunk and defiant, Rachel continues, blaming Gavin for the Legends’ loss in the playoffs, which cost them a shot at the World Series.
