The comment drives Drew Tanaka, the head counselor of the Aphrodite cabin at the time, mad and she orders him to do garbage patrol for a week as a punishment.
He and Lacy help Piper when she is chosen to go on a quest by giving her clothes and food. Mitchell explains to Piper how Drew took over, with the use of her charmspeak. Drew overhears this and makes Mitchell do an extra week of garbage patrol.
