I’m wearing a glove and I still want to wash my hands.
When leaving, Dan bums into Serena on his walk of shame, but instead of admitting it was a walk of shame he says he was visiting Vanessa until pops her head out of her room. It’s obvious that Vanessa had no idea he was there. Serena hopes that Dan isn’t hooking up with Georgina and Vanessa hopes Dan isn’t hooking up with Blair. While talking to Dan she tells him that Scott is at his Comp Theory seminar that is so hard to get into, but Dan tells her it’s in the afternoon. Vanessa starts to think something is up with Scott. Vanessa calls him to ask if he wants to meet up but he lies and says he has class, but he’s really hanging out with Rufus getting guitar lessons.
Serena tells Dan she’s dating Carter and Serena just wants to make sure Dan knows what he’s doing. He tells her that he needs to tell Georgina that it’s just a casual thing because she can go from zero to crazy when something doesn’t go the way she plans.
When they part ways Serena goes to meet Carter. He says he wants to spend some time with her this weekend at The Downing Hotel. But then a girl walks up to Carter and says they had sex last month.

Vanessa goes to see if Scott is enrolled at the school, but she soon finds out that he’s not and she grows even more suspicious.
Blair goes to Chuck’s for the breakfast booty call, but he turns her down because he’s got a big meeting that morning. He doesn’t want to lose focus. Blair is upset because he hasn’t made time for her in five days and leaves. But says she has no where to go because her roommate is a sock nymphomaniac and her boyfriend doesn’t have time for her.

And they thought he died, but Scott tells him that it was his younger brother who died. He asks Vanessa not to say anything if she cares about him.
Carter is at a hotel and he can’t pay the bill. They said he ordered very expensive room service bill and his credit card was denied.
