Since Warren's busy tracking down the cash, Cisco and Shwayze have to handle the next business meeting on their own. They meet up with the manager of Wave House, who tells them what to expect and, more importantly, all of the rules they'll have to follow. No swearing or talking about sex or drugs while they perform. Their by-the-beach locale means the stage is within earshot of sunbathing families.
WE DON'T WANT THESE KIDS TURNING OUT LIKE YOU BUMS
Meanwhile, Warren's combing the coast line, looking for their magical money envelope. And he is looking everywhere. Even in trash cans. Because, logically, if someone found an envelope with $5000 cash, they'd throw it out.
DESTINED TO RUMMAGE THROUGH TRASH CANS
Back at the Wave House, Tiny Hat makes another appearance. And he's come with a very special gift...the money envelope! Apparently it had been at the Wave House all along. Jackass Warren left it on a table somewhere. Thank you, Tiny Hat!
TINY HAT, BIG HELP
Cisco gladly takes back the money and then informs Shwayze that it is safe and sound. Then, rather than telling Warren to call off the search party, they decide to let him believe the money is still missing. This oughta teach him a lesson. Maybe.
It's nearly show time at the Wave House, and Jordan shows up to oversee the festivities. Immediately when he arrives he notices there isn't a trace of Axe Body Spray in the air, and concludes that Warren must not be anywhere around them. Cisco informs him that Warren is tied up with some things and that he and Shwayze handled the meeting with the venue's manager all by themselves. "Well what did he say?" asks Jordan.
"He said rock it," replies Shwayze. Yeah, I bet he did say that. But he also said about 15 other things and all of his sentences began with "Don't..."
TRUST ME. HAVE I EVER LIED TO YOU BEFORE? WAIT...DON'T ANSWER THAT.
Although perhaps fooled into thinking that Shwayze and Cisco handled the meeting responsibly, Jordan is not completely appeased. Warren's absence has him P-O'd. He calls him to unload his anger and leaves him a voicemail message basically saying his ass is grass if he doesn't show up at the Wave House.
Meanwhile, at another pool party full of bikini-clad drunk chicks, Warren is courting his old pal Bruno, looking for a favor.
I MEAN, I MESSED UP A LOT OF THINGS, BUT I'M TALKING ABOUT ONE THING IN PARTICULAR.
Warren talks Bruno into booking Shwayze at his club for the night. A short set at the price of $5000. Reluctantly, Bruno agrees.
Here's what I don't get. Yeah sure he's replacing the money he lost, but now the guys are doing 2 shows. So really they are still doing more "work" and so nothing has really evened out. But I suppose it doesn't matter now that the money has actually been recovered, unbeknownst to poor Warren.
On stage, Shwayze and Cisco have the crowd going wild. They're also saying a whole lot of bad words. It seems this crowd really likes swearing because they're wooping up a storm.
GOSH DARN IT! M-EFFERS!
But there's one guy who is not a fan of the f-bombs, the Wavehouse manager Peter the Hedgehog.
SON OF A...
I don't know what had this man convinced that these two were going to follow his orders. And actually, he probably should've known that forbidding them from doing something would only give them the idea to start causing trouble. So Manager Peter finds Manager Jordan and tells him to get the boyz under control.
Jordan reaches out and grabs Cisco by the waste of his pants --probably something he's used to-- and tells him to knock it off because he's pissing off the management. Cisco marches back on stage and announces to the crowd that they've been told to stop with the references to drugs and sex. Then they go on to say the Fuck work about 15 times in the next 5 seconds.
I'm sure that Peter the Hedgehog was not pleased. But Jordan seemed amused.
THOSE BOYS OF MINE
After the show, Warren calls Cisco to let him know they're booked for two songs at Sweetwater and they'll make back the missing 5k. Cisco still doesn't tell him that they already found the money, and instead decides to stir the pot just a little bit more before the day is through. So he invites Jordan to Sweetwater where he'll A)Be informed of the missing money and B) See that Warren booked a gig without consulting him first. Jordan's already angry enough, blaming the whole swearing-and-riling-up-the-hedgehog mess on Warren's absence. Warren's absence that was caused by Cisco's lying, that is.

Man, I'm going to have to get me some stringy long hair and a hobolicious goatee, then find a black sidekick who looks suspiciously like JJ from Good Times....
'cause when we play a gig, we get 250 bucks for three full sets...and there's six of us in the band...
