CASE FILE · S18 E10
After LASIK leaves Dee temporarily unable to see, the guys abandon her for a sleepover of their own. Failed pranks escalate into stolen electronics, a car chase and an unexpectedly honest rooftop conversation, while Artemis and the Waitress turn Dee’s evening into a drug-fueled séance.
THE SHORT VERSION · SPOILERS AHEAD
Dee’s PingCrime alerts turn a pub conversation into an argument about neighborhood safety. She reminds Dennis that she needs company after LASIK, but he denies having agreed to stay. The men reject her sleepover invitation and promptly organize their own.
Supporting source ↗Frank recalls that Dennis used “spaghetti” as a childhood signal to be collected early from sleepovers. Dennis denies being afraid, insists on sensible bedtimes, and later uses the same code while asking Frank for help. Barbara appears only in Frank’s recollection.
Supporting source ↗Spoken caller identification gives away the guys’ call to Dee, and her expired milk ruins the refrigerator joke. Charlie orders twenty pizzas as a prank, only to discover that the app requires him to pay for them.
Supporting source ↗Artemis leaves her true-crime program to keep Dee company. The Waitress arrives with Charlie’s pizzas and stays for the Ouija board and tea. Artemis later reveals that the tea contains peyote, surprising Dee.
Supporting source ↗Mac has jammed the VCR, so Frank sneaks into Dee’s apartment to take hers. The other men go out to throw eggs at cars. Their prank causes a collision, and the angry driver pursues them; Mac’s cramped hips leave him unable to escape.
Supporting source ↗Charlie asks Dennis why sleepovers frighten him. Dennis admits that he dislikes the dangerous games but also fears being mocked for refusing. Charlie offers reassurance about friendship, then pulls Dennis off the roof into a dumpster. They emerge laughing and howl together.
Supporting source ↗Artemis and the Waitress want to summon Bloody Mary while Dee becomes sick. Frank is hiding in the bathroom and reaches toward the Waitress during his panty raid. Dee’s panic sends him crashing into the cookies he contaminated earlier.
Supporting source ↗At sunrise, everyone is together in sleeping bags. Charlie and Dennis are still awake and declare themselves the winners. Dennis now proposes drawing on the sleeping guests’ faces; the episode ends with their agreement, before any drawings are shown.
Supporting source ↗The closing credits name Mary Elizabeth Ellis as Waitress, Artemis Pebdani as Artemis, and Gabriel “G-Rod” Rodriguez as Very Large Man. The motorist’s personal name is never established. TVmaze lists Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day as writers and Todd Biermann as director.
