Darcy seems to have left her $2k Purse somewhere in the club, and Rachel offers Dex to help find it. Ethan and Rachel are left after the party, discussing Claire and how Ethan likes Rachel, although he doesn't get to speak further about it as they are hailing a cab when one pulls up with Dex in it. Ethan also is avoiding Claire, another mutual friend who Ethan made the grievous error of sleeping with despite not being interested in a relationship with her, and now Claire has a massive crush on Ethan. He points out to Rachel it was kind of her to act surprised despite him knowing she wasn't. Part of the way through the party, Darcy has gotten excessively drunk, so Dex is leaving with her.

Darcy starts to dance on the stage, with an embarrassed Dex coaxing her down. Of course Darcy is so into herself that even though it is Rachel's birthday, she makes the night about her, doing a picture PowerPoint of her and Rachel's friendship through the years, including 6th Grade and Ethan taking them both to the dance, although Ethan is clearly looking at Rachel, and some showy images of Darcy and Dex, who Darcy credits Rachel with them getting together. She walks in to be greeted by a surprise party being given to her by Darcy. Rachel is about to enter a very stylish nightclub with a look of trepidation. This resulted in them getting together and now they are engaged. Darcy has spent years with Rachel always acquiescing to her way because of Darcy's overbearing attitude, to the point where 6 years earlier, Rachel pretty much handed her crush from law school, Dex, over to Darcy. He is annoyed with Darcy's treatment of Rachel.

There is a history shown that for the 6th grade dance Ethan went with both Rachel and Darcy, presumably because Darcy couldn't let Rachel have a date when she didn't. Ethan is Rachel's best guy friend, who also has known Darcy since childhood. It is hinted that Darcy didn't have a normal family or childhood by how she constantly goes on about Rachel being the sister she never had and the mother she always wanted. Rachel is a just turned 30 lawyer who is very attractive, but down to earth, used to be overshadowed by her larger than life best friend since childhood - Darcy.
