For all of their combined academic and business acumen, J.P. and Brad sure do know how to step in it and break everything in the china shop. Enter Stef, and now everything is smoothed over. It's always about the presentation, and J.P. and Brad should know that.
I'm concerned for Jeremy. Although he's not melting down, stuff still bothers him in an unhealthy way. His thoughts about PR were really out of place for a service that was being held in a private home. But at least he's trying to stand up for himself.
Kudos to Claire for letting Jack's father know that she wasn't going to take any crap off of Pat. She and Marie did a really great job setting up the celebration.
