Donna tries to decide the perfect gift for the current place they’re in. Jackie suggests a scented candle and a seductive look. Meanwhile Kelso has the hots for Laurie and incorrectly assumes she feels the same. Laurie agrees to tell their parents that Eric is too old for a party if he loans her the car.

At first he’s against it, then, angry about being laid off from his job, sees the opportunity to delivery a scathing question.

When it comes time for Red to ask his question, he begins to struggle with what he will ask. Just at that moment, Eric dons his Nixon mask and streaks through the crowd. This gives Red confidence to ask Ford how he could possibly pardon Nixon.
