# Candy #39 Candy attempts to prepare a special chili con carne dish for a restaurant opening, but encounters complications when her friend encounters a man with a recipe for tuna fish patties made with coconut as a substitute ingredient. Meanwhile, in a separate story titled "Pierre," Candy and her friends visit a beauty salon where they receive new haircuts and decide to give each other permanent waves at home, ultimately planning to make tracks and show off their results to the boys.

When Candy O'Connor and her friends throw a costume contest party, things spiral hilariously out of control as their historical character charades turn into comedic mayhem. With Candy as Marie Antoinette, Ted as King Louis XIV, and the gang dressed as everyone from Cleopatra to Paul Revere, the competition quickly devolves into slapstick chaos that nobody quite saw coming. The real question is whether anyone will actually make it through the contest—or if the party itself becomes the real prize.
