Alexander was at the Schuyler mansion with Eliza and his friends, Laurens, Mulligan, and Lafayette. After dinner with the Schuyler sisters, everyone decided to have a musical theater karaoke night. Laurens went up to sing and said "All right, everyone, who wants to hear some Dear Evan Hansen?". Just then, Peggy went up to the clipboard and said "Wait. Wait a minute. John, someone crossed out your name and wrote 'Angelica'". Laurens protested and said, "Hey, that's not fair!" "Life's not fair", Angelica said. She was wearing a robe similar to what Mimi from "Rent" wore during her number "Out Tonight". She then took the microphone. "Let's go back to 1996, back in the days of 'Rent'! Hit it!". The music for "Out Tonight" from the musical "Rent" came on.

What's the time?
Well, it's gotta be close to midnight
My body's talking to me
It says, "Time for danger"

It says, "I wanna commit a crime
Wanna be the cause of a fight
I wanna put on a tight skirt
and flirt with a stranger"

When she said the word "flirt", she took off her robe, revealing a leather crop top and leather pants.

I've had a knack from way back
At breaking the rules once I learn the games
Get up, life's too quick, I know someplace sick
Where this chick'll dance in the flames

We don't need any money
I always get in for free
You can get in too
If you get in with me

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna play? Let's run away
We won't be back before it's Christmas Day
Take me out tonight (Meow! Ha!)

When I get a wink from the doorman
Do you know how lucky you'll be?
That you're on line with the feline of Avenue B

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna prowl, be my night owl
Well, take my hand, we're gonna howl out tonight

In the evening I've got to roam
Can't sleep in the city of neon and chrome
Feels too d--- much like home
When the Spanish babies cry

So let's find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
But all the scars from the nevers and maybes die

Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You're sweet, wanna hit the streets?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat?
Just take me out tonight

Angelica began to approach Alexander and she got a little too close to comfort to him. Alex gets weirded out.

Please take me out tonight
Don't forsake me out tonight
I'll let you make me out tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Most everyone seemed to Angelica's rendition of the song, and they applauded, except for Alexander and Eliza, for whom this was...well, awkward. Eliza then got up and said "I'm up next!". The music for "Heart of Stone" from "Six" began to play. 

You've got a good heart,
But I know it changes.
A restless tide, untamable.
You came my way, and I knew a storm could come too.
You'd lift me high, or let me fall.
