His actions frighten Gordon. The snakes, in retaliation, emerge again turning the waiter to stone. In a panic, Gordon rushes to hide the result of his existence by integrating the waiter into his environment. Theresa now arriving at the restaurant is taken back by her glasses. Insecure, she removes them accepting this date will live up to its true nature, blind.
