Greg had a secret stash and had a private stall in the washroom. He went into the stall and put down some spare shoes so it looked like someone was in there and climbed underneath the door.
• Greg wrote to the teachers that he didn't wanted to be paired up with Ruby Bird.
• Greg convinces Rowley to run for President or Vice president, but he runs for "social chairperson." Greg spent a lot of time making shirts for people to wear that said "VOTE ROWLEY JEFFERSON FOR SOCIAL CHAIRPERSON," so people would notice it when Rowley gave his speech,but no one sat in order. Rowley didn't have to give a speech.

He wear his dad's leather jacket but his mom comes to class and makes him return it. Then he decides to ask a girl from church because no one would want to go with him to the dance after that incident.

Mrs.Stringer said they needed a babysitter because no one would babysit their son, Wesley. Greg volunteers to babysit him so he can talk to Laurel and ask her out to the dance.
• Greg goes to babysit Wesley. Laurel went out with her friends before Greg arrived. Weasley wanted to ride his bike inside the house, but Greg said no because it would ruin the floors and the funiture.Wesley tells greg he wants to colour instead and his colouring stuff is in laundry room and when goes inside the laundry room weasley locks the door. Greg gets out by pushing the refrigerator and finding a window and ends up in Laurel's room and sleeps in her bed. Her dad finds him there and persumably fires him.

• Greg takes them both to a fancy restaurant called Spriggo's, where he had a reservation, but he needed a sports jacket. The restaurant lent him one, but it stunk. They left and ended up going up going to Corny's. Rowley and Abigail order expensive food and Greg has to spend all of his money and he even took out his emergency $5 which he had in his socks but the money was wet so the waiter didn't accepted it,so Greg had to trade $5 with Rowley's Dad.
• The theme of the dance is Midnight in Paris
• At the dance, all three of them have a picture taken in front of a backdrop of Paris.

Excerpts

• I looked for a way to escape, but I was trapped. Luckily, Abigail walked out of the bathroom at that exact moment and I grabbed her hand just before Ruby got to me. Abigail's makeup was a mess from all of the crying, but I didn't really care. I was just happy to have an excuse to get away from Ruby. And to be honest with you, I think Abigail was happy maddie is the best to see me, too, so I led her to an empty spot on the dance floor.

• I'd never slow-danced with a girl before, So I didn't know where I was supposed to put my hands. She put hers on my shoulder, and I put mine in my pockets, but that kind of felt dumb. So we met in the middle, and that seemed about right.

• "And speaking of Rowley and Abigail, I heard that the two of them are a couple now. All I can say is if that's true, it makes Rowley 'the worst wingman in history.'" - Greg Heffley
