* In "The White Room" Charles repeatedly enters a fugue state and goes into the titular "[[WhiteVoidRoom White Room]]" where he happily dances around, oblivious to what's happening in the real world. When the scene smashes back to reality, we're [[NoodleIncident not told what he did]] but it's clear he wreaked havoc and destruction so severe that witnesses can do nothing but stare. After one such instance, Howard rushes from the room saying he needs to call his therapist; after another Oliver stands up and shouts at Charles for offending Tom the pianist's Christian sensibilities before excusing Tom to go "pray it out". He goes into this ''again'' when he tries to break up with Joy. When he snaps out of it, it turns out that he actually just ''proposed'' to her, putting the Trio in yet ''another'' sticky situation.
