Episode #506 "Riverboat Queen"

D.C. has a chance to bid on a hotel job for one of the biggest developers in the Midwest. Grace tells him he’s going to have to make an extra effort to schmooze the guy and make him feel at ease, even though it isn’t D.C.’s style. D.C. tells Grace she should join them for dinner. At dinner with Davis Walsh, the developer, things are a bit awkward, but Davis seems attracted to Grace. Davis is paged and excuses himself, and D.C. tells Grace she should play up to Davis for the sake of their getting the job. Grace immediately learns that it’s actually D.C. that Davis is attracted to. When Davis again leave the table, Grace tells D.C. that he’s the one who’s going to have to do a little flirting. Russell has good feelings about his new relationship with Dot, who has agreed to a second date with him. At dinner with Russell, Dot tells him she likes being with him but wants things to move slowly. Russell agrees, but he’s busted when a strolling hypnotist puts him under and he tells the whole restaurant that he pictures Dot naked, wearing nothing but a gold chain he’s going to give her. When he wakes up, it’s obvious that Dot heard everything. She says everything’s fine, but she still wants to take things one day at a time.
