As DJ prepares to escort Steve to his senior prom, she gets upset when, while shopping for a dress, she and Steve run into his former girlfriend Rachel. DJ's concerns pave the way for chaos when Steve and Rachel are voted prom king and queen at the dance. A misunderstanding leads DJ to believe that her boyfriend is slipping away from her, and just when it appears that her fairytale evening is spoiled, Steve confronts her with his true feelings about their relationship. Back at home, Danny and Vicky are spending a perfectly pleasant evening together--that is, until he uncovers a little secret about her.

Quotes

add »
DJ: (about Steve and Rachel) I thought he broke up with her.
Gorilla: No, she dumped him. The poor guy couldn't eat for a week!
Kimmy: A week? I've never seen the guy go five minutes without a measly Tic Tac! (edit)
Becky: Hey, guys. Mind if I hang out with you? I feel so old over there on Chaperone Row.
Kimmy: You know, it's really uncool to be seen with the chaperones.
Becky: Tell me about it.
Kimmy: I repeat, it's really uncool to be seen with the chaperones. (edit)
DJ: (about an after-prom party) Well, the thing is, I think Steve wants to go. His old girlfriend Rachel invited us. She's beautiful.
Becky: DJ, you're beautiful too. And I don't think you have anything to worry about. Steve is in love with you. He's nuts about you. Why else would he be over here all the time?
Michelle: To eat! (edit)
DJ: (about Rachel and Steve during the prom king/queen dance) Could she be holding him any tighter?
Kimmy: If she does, we'll have to butter his tux to get him loose! (edit)
DJ: (after Steve and Rachel kiss) He told me he loved me. What a lie. I hate him! I hate guys! (turns and kisses Paul right in front of Steve)
Kimmy: Gee, you sure got over that fast! (edit)

DJ comments that Rachel is holding Steve really tight during the prom king/queen dance, and Kimmy says that they'll have to butter his tux to get him loose. In Season 3's Misadventures in Babysitting, DJ and Kimmy literally had to cover a kid's head in butter to loosen him out when he got his head stuck between the railings. (edit)
