They stay at the exclusive Hugh Hefner Suite at the Palms Hotel, flash a window washer, enjoy some cake and cocktails, hang at the pool and engage in a bit of wet 'n' wild group frolicking in the suite's custom shower. But before they know it, the girls' 9 p.m. curfew rolls around, and it's time to get back to the Mansion--even though Kendra's having a wee bit too much fun.

"Lingerie or less," that's the dress code for Playboy's Midsummer Night's Dream, the annual hedonistic ritual that has become one of L.A.'s most anticipated summer events. To prepare for the massive soiree, the girls endure a gauntlet of hair and makeup appointments, bikini waxes and tanning sessions. Bridget's sister, Anastasia (who feels frumpy in comparison and is eager to join the ranks of her older sis), is in the thick of it, too, getting an extra-special makeover for the big night. Even angry kitty Gizmo gets a new coif, which she hates, naturally. On the big night, Holly is sequined in all the right places, Bridget gets a Medusa-inspired look, and Kendra opts for simple pasties and a thong. But Anastasia knocks everyone out with her new look--and all four of them have a blast at the bash!

Season 1 Episode 9 - Aired 10/23/2005
There's plenty of hot stuff going on this week. First, the girls slip between the sheets for another sizzling photo shoot--and visions of a Playboy cover dancing in their heads. Then Holly not only decides to renovate the Playboy guesthouse (last designed by Hef's former gal-pal Barbi Benton in the '70s) but hones her cooking skills with a barbecue. The pressure of doing both gets her a little hot under the collar--and pretty stressed out. The time-consuming renovation process is a pain, but the barbecue goes off without too many hitches. Things take a turn for the better when (after some snooping around, naturally) the girls finally get to see themselves on the cover of the November issue of Playboy. Hot stuff indeed.

After a packed magazine signing, the group relaxes with a dinner at Bridget's favorite haunt, the macabre Jekyll & Hyde Restaurant, and a showing of Spamalot. But the good times are interrupted by nerves, as the girls are set to appear on The View the next day. Their fears become reality during a not too friendly on-air interview. But the girls let it roll off their backs and prepare for another big night: one honoring Hef, in which his daughter brings him to tears with a touching speech. Hef and the girls bid their well-wishers goodnight and board their jet, exhausted but delighted by their whirlwind adventures.

Both events are hotter than the desert sun. The Palms' new Playboy tower is stunning, housing Playboy-themed casinos, suites and the first official Playboy Club in decades. During their stay, the gang embraces the rest of Sin City, too, checking out a wax replica of Hef at Madame Tussaud's, partying with hotelier George Maloof and playing some B-ball inside a hotel room's full-size basketball court! Then it's off to dinner with Cavalli and a fashion show for the new Playboy Club's bunny costumes--starring Holly! It's the perfect way to usher in a new era of Playboy.
