Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Bev & Tony minds were literally reeling as they saw Jennifer Love Hewitt sitting at the table. It seemed that not only were they going to get to play strip poker with 2 of the most-beautiful actresses in Hollywood, but 2 of Hollywood's "good girls" as well.

Jennifer's presence here was a first for her, & a product of sporadic decision. In truth, she was hoping Tony & Bev wouldn't show up. But now that they were here, she planned to go through with it. How far she'd be willing to go, though, nobody (including Jennifer herself) really knew.

Jessica & Jennifer tried to put Tony & Bev at ease with small talk & a glass of wine. Truth be told, the celeb-babes were just as nervous as Tony & Bev, though for different reasons. (For Tony & Bev, it was their first celebrity game of strip poker; For Jessica & Jennifer, it was their first strip poker game ever).

Finally, after about 15 minutes of talking, Jennifer broke the ice. "Well, I guess it's time we start playing. You 2 know the rules, right? What happens here, stays here." Tony & Bev nodded emphatically. They didn't want this to be their only celebrity strip poker game!

Jennifer pushed a deck of cards to Tony. "You 2 are the experts. How do we do this?"

Tony swallowed, trying to steady his nerves. "Well, we usually play that low hand in each round loses 1 item of clothing. Shoes & socks count as 1 item, & items like belts & jewelry don't count as all."

Jennifer nodded, considering her outfit. She was wearing flip-flops, black stretch pants, & a pink top with spaghetti straps & a modest scoop.

Jessica asked, "What happens when somebody loses everything? Do they have to leave or something?"

"Well," Tony continued, not meeting any eyes. "They can stay & continue playing. But if they lose, the high hand of that round can give them a dare. But---" Tony quickly inserted, before somebody could object, "The dare has to be acceptable for everyone involved."

Jessica & Jennifer seemed to mull this over, before nodding. Tony began dealing the cards.

"The game is 5-card draw, no wild cards. High hand wins the deal for the next round. You can discard up to 3 cards, 4 if you keep an Ace," Tony told the 3 ladies.
