YN walks Glynda back to her office and then goes to his own office and picks up the phone.

YN: Coco, are you there?

Coco: Yeah, what's the problem?

YN: Glynda and I are having a guest around for tea and cake. I'd like you to go out and get some small tea cakes from the bakery run by the James's, I have a line of credit with them so you won't need to pay for them.

Coco, how many should I get?

YN: Five of each, and something for yourself if you'd like.

Coco: Thanks.

YN: No problem, but after you get the cakes, I want you and Velvet to put on your maid uniforms and when my guest arrives, I'd like you two to serve the tea and cakes.

Coco: No problem I'll pick up the cakes in a bit.

YN: Thank you, goodbye.

Coco: Goodbye.

YN then hangs up the phone and goes to Glynda's office and helps her grade the papers.

It is at this point when Coco heads out and picks up the cakes. Red velvet, chocolate, vanilla, upside down, and sweet cream cakes, all types of cakes. Dozens of sweet treats for three people, not that they plan on eating them all.

After she gets the cakes, Coco hands them to Velvet who arranges them on a tiered display and prepares to bring them to the western tea room as Coco does with the tea.

A few minutes later YN and Glynda arrive home and both of them get changed out of their work clothes. Glynda gets changed into something a bit more casual. YN on the other hand, he puts on wool dress trousers a linen shirt, and a tweed waistcoat with a silver pocket watch and an attached Albert chain. Needless to say, YN wanted to make an impression.

Glynda: Don't you think you are a tad overdressed?

YN: The opposite could be said for you.

Glynda: She's my best friend, she won't care if you're in sweatpants or a tux.

YN: I doubt that, but that's why I'm dressed in the middle of the two extremes that you said. Anyhow, she'll be here soon and I both can't and won't get changed.

Glynda: Fair enough, just, no cavalry boots.

YN: Why would I wear cavalry boots? I'm going to be indoors, if we go outside then maybe.

Glynda: Fair enough I suppose. But since she is coming for tea, and not horseback riding, I think we should be fine.

YN: Good, so nothing to worry about.

The two of them then go into the tea room and then wait for Peach to arrive. And when she does arrive, she is welcomed by Velvet wearing a maid outfit.
