Adam tries to find Dave Kim a date for prom so they all go together. Meanwhile, Barry leads Erica to believe that Geoff has started dating someone new.

Quote from Geoff

Adult Adam: [v.o.] While I dug myself into a hole, Geoff was finally coming out of his funk and sampling all the things he didn't do when he was with Erica... like being an iguana guy.
Geoff: What is that, a cricket in your mouth? What's your appeal?
Adult Adam: [v.o.] He took a watercolor class.
Geoff: I love how much it looks like the towel I wipe my brushes on.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] He even tried some travel.
Geoff: All right, map, where to next? [throws dart] Downtown Philly. Looks like someone's venturing beyond their comfort zone and seeing the Italian Market.

Quote from Barry

Geoff: Trying all this stuff has actually been really great.
Barry: Yeah. Now you just need to stop a purse-snatcher with a soup can, and your transformation into an Australian sex icon will be complete.
Geoff: Even your odd obsession with the croc movie isn't gonna diminish my pleasure in the personal growth I've made.
Barry: Shut up! [sniffs] I know that smell. It's my mom's signature scent... meatballs and Aqua Net. What are you guys doing here?
Beverly: I was just power-walking your beautiful campus on a self-guided architecture tour. I'm a big fan of buildings built in the last six months.
Barry: That tracks.

Quote from Geoff

Geoff: Erica, h-hey.
Erica: Hey, Geoff. You look... tan.
Geoff: Thanks. New sunscreen I've been trying out. I'm going with SPF 30.
Erica: 30? You're an 80 man.
Geoff: I've actually been trying out a lot of new things lately.
Erica: New is always better than old, familiar, and tons of shared history.
Geoff: I'm actually not...
Barry: Available. To talk. Because he's on his way to a drained pool so he can shred the gnar, right, Geoff?
Geoff: Right, yeah. I mean, gnars must be shredded. But, you know, I just want to clear up...
Barry: Clear up his horrible bacne. [scoffs] Ugh, it's not okay. That's another thing he's doing as a new, improved man. Now, skate away triumphantly, Geoff. Go!

Quote from Dave Kim

Dave Kim: Guys, guess what happened?
JC Spink: Puberty?
Brian: Say goodbye to clear skin and hello to weird feelings about your mom's friend Janet.
Dave Kim: I just got asked to prom by Sydney!
JC Spink: Sydney the cheerleader asked you, with that haircut? Explain yourself.
Dave Kim: She just walked up and did it. I kind of blacked out after that, but it's real.
Adam: But what about White Swan Park?
Dave Kim: Screw White Swan. I'm going to prom with the hottest girl in school. No offense, Brea.
Brea: Women aren't some commodity for you to rank.
Dave Kim: Fine, you're co-number ones.
Brian: Dave Kim, I'm impressed.
JC Spink: Yeah, your face suddenly looks less punchable.
Dave Kim: Oh, man. I gotta get my magician's tux from the trunk in the attic. The Amazing Dave is amazing again.

Quote from Murray

Adult Adam: [v.o.] Prom night had taken an ugly turn. Fortunately, my dad was always there. Not always there for me, just always there.
Murray: What are you doing home? [Adam turns the TV off] Hey.
Adam: Remember when you told me to get Dave Kim a date to prom?
Murray: Not even in the slightest.
Adam: I did. But then he acted like a cocky jerk, so I embarrassed him. But it was really bad.
Murray: Here's the thing about prom.
Adam: I know, it's just some dumb dance you're never gonna remember.
Murray: It's one of the biggest nights of your life. It's the last night celebrating with all your friends before you go in different directions.
Adam: What the hell? The only time I've seen you this sentimental is when you sadly finished the Pepperidge Farm Christmas basket.
Murray: Food. I love it.

Quote from Murray

Murray: Well, here's something you didn't know... I didn't have a date for prom.
Adam: So, you didn't go?
Murray: Worse... I went with my cousin, Joyce. Picture me in a dress. There you have it.
Adam: I... never knew that.
Murray: It's not something you brag about, moron. As big as this night is for you and Brea, it's just as big for Dave Kim.
Adam: You got all the names right.
Murray: I know some stuff.
Adam: Thanks, Dad.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Yeah, deep down, my dad always had a few gems, and it was up to me to be there for my best bud.

Quote from Barry

Beverly: She doesn't want to come to the window.
Geoff: Okay, then, would you tell her I'm not dating Paula Hogan?
Beverly: [gasps] He says he's not dating Paula Hogan.
Erica: He's not? Why not?
Beverly: Why not?
Barry: I'll field this one. I made it up!
Beverly: Barry says he made it up.
Erica: Really?
Beverly: Really?
Geoff: Yes!
Beverly: Yes!
Barry: Hey, this is just like in Crocodile Dundee when Mick professes his love across a busy subway platform. But you're doing it through my mom.
Beverly: This is just like when a crocodile in dungarees eats Mick Jagger in a Subway sandwich shop.
Erica: What?
Beverly: This is way harder than it looks.

Quote from Geoff

Geoff: Tell her there's nobody from Australia or anyone else in the world that I'd rather be with! Tell her I love her!
Beverly: [gasps] He says he...
Erica: I heard him! Get out of my way! [goes to the window] You love me?
Geoff: More than anything. I did what you wanted. I sampled life to find out what makes me happy, and I discovered there's only one thing... you.
Erica: Stay there.
Geoff: I'm not going anywhere.
Beverly: Mama did it again.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] That's the thing about finding the people you're supposed to be with. There might be highs and lows, ups and downs, but if you hang in there, it turns out to be more than worth it.

Quote from Beverly

Beverly: You want to win back Geoff's heart, and I want to help you. Your hair needs more oomph. Luckily, I've got a crimper, a curler, and a flat iron in my purse.
Erica: Back off, Vidal Sassoon.

Quote from Barry

Geoff: Barry, no, no, no. You can't open it. She probably wants to know why I didn't show up to her gig in L.A.
Barry: Why did you leave her hanging in that incredibly important moment?
Geoff: I humiliated myself when I bumped into her, and I thought I'd just cut my losses. Was that the wrong move?
Barry: Impossible to say, but definitely.
