While the rest of the group argues about how exactly to take a nap, Rubio trumps Flora and arranges for a future trump contact in return for ensuring that Clark’s bride will be wearing a proper gown at the wedding.  The group then tries to contact Clark and he agrees to come through.  The group adjourns to a nice hotel for the next stage of the plan which consists of Gwenyth convincing Evelyn to go to sleep.  Once Evelyn is asleep her powers cause everyone else to pass out.
