When she left, Cameron went to Brin for a piece of advice on what to do about Padgett. She is happy cause she has been sensing chemistry between the two so she advises him to ask her to prom. Meanwhile, Padgett panicked about what happened and was talking to Quinn about it when Cameron showed up. He asked her to prom with a rose flower and her picture while Brin was recording.
