This week on The Crazy Ones, Sydney (Sarah Michelle Gellar) has a stalker and Simon (Robin Williams) tries to land the Australia account, even though he hates Australia.
After Sydney was featured in a profile in Ad Age, she gets a gift basket from Danny (Josh Groban), a former coworker of hers. She discovers that he has a stalker-like obsession with her, including a catchy song that he wrote for her. Sydney wears a sold-out Helmut Lang Cove Leather Trim Suit Jacket ($229). To recreate this look I found a Sharagano Faux-Leather Trim Blazer ($99.99), a Calvin Klein top ($29.99) and some great vintage earrings on Etsy ($20.53): The catchy song about Sydney has blown up around the office. Everywhere she goes, someone is playing it. They even have a Calypso version. Sydney wears a BCBG Tuxedo Jacket ($99.20) and a sold-out embellished muscle tee from Haute Hippie ($173). I found a similar shirt from Victoria’s Secret ($29.50):
Unfortunately, it all goes terribly wrong when Danny shows up at the office determined to take Sydney on a date. She gets freaked out and tells him that she never wants to see him again. Sydney wears a Tibi Solid Silk Cami in Magenta ($99), the Parker Vivian Leather Sequin & Silk Top ($308) (ID: Possessionista) and Arte Designs Pink Tourmaline Gemstone Earrings ($40). To recreate this look for less, I found a DKNYC sequin pullover ($79.99), this Halogen Camisole ($19.00) these Stella and Dot Serenity Small Stone Drop Earrings ($34):
The situation gets more difficult when Simon and team have done everything they can to pitch the Australia account, even as far as dressing as women.
But the only thing that seems to work is the song that Danny wrote for Sydney, which the whole office has stuck in their heads. The only problem is that after she humiliated him, he doesn’t want to sell his song to Lewis, Roberts and Roberts.
Good ole’ dad to the rescue though, because Simon convinces Danny that Sydney’s refusal actually makes him a better artist. So in the end it all works out and Simon confronts his bad relationship with Australia as the source of most of his life problems.
Problem solved.
