| It was a fun start to the day when Tom decided to invite the models from his agency to a picnic. All of the girls brought home-made bread with sliced turkey and swiss cheese inside. Another basket containing fruits and vegetables was sitting on Tom's doorstep. Michael had arrived ten minutes earlier to prepare for the secret party for Erica and her mom. The guests were hiding in various closets awaiting their turn to jump out and shout 'Surprise' and hopefully get some nice view of the cake. After everyone gathered around the meeting table, Tom asked Michael to propose to Erica. She was unwrapping her gifts when suddenly 10 reporters started knocking over the refreshments. All of them had only five minutes to save their gifts. Once the drinks had been refilled with punch and lemon slices, Erica took a moment to gather her thoughts. She then began to speak directly to Tom, but another actor interrupted her and started to ask random questions about pets and fashion. Michael walked past Justin and gave Erica some candy. She smiled and hugged him without hesitation, while Justin tried to prevent a small incident from occurring involving the paparazzi. They tried to sneak a picture of Erica's feet so that they could print some exclusive shots in next season's catalogue of 'Most Unique Encounters With Famous Actresses On TV In The United States.'
