The boys believed Jeff was safe by telling Wilma he's faithful to his girlfriend, but as the girls predict she forces him either to say she's not attractive or to accept meaningless sex. Jane pops in during an endless demonstration that a driver's license is no guarantee against turning parallel parking into a lethal hazard for cars (especially Patrick's) and pedestrians. She mindlessly 'cues' Jeff to the question 'what kind of girlfriend is both current and ex?' (He escapes answering why he didn't tell her about their date by answering 'a dead one'). Meanwhile Steve brought Susan's wrath on himself by failing to cue the required response, and Sally hands her a frightening tool: she has worked for the agency 'Man test', which still sends out sirens to prove they can be seduced into infidelity. Wilma promises to respect Jeff's fidelity but insists to give him a lift and use his bathroom, but a sassy surprise expects both of them and the friends who turn up as relieve cavalry.

more

Jeffs tells his mates he fears that he has caused irreparable disaster just by saying 'Hi' to office colleague Wilma Lettings. Her desk gave her the best view on his posterior during a photocopying disaster. This leads to a date with her, although her boyfriend is in Australia and Julia forbids co-workers to know about them. Jane explains 'how well' she addressed the religious program presenter James, whose sexy presence makes her substitute 'penis' for 'car'. She went to his Bible group, posing as a fellow Christian, only in her ruthlessly atheist, rude, promiscuous and violent way. Jeff's dangerous date is coached by cellphone with two female 'feelings translators', but Julia grabs his.

Patrick and Sally each discuss with their friends the bedroom disaster of the previous episode, in which Patrick encountered a problem entirely new to him. Jeff takes this opportunity to explain to Patrick the ways of "The Melty Man," who comes "to do his evil work inside your terrified pants."

It's time for Susan and Steve to redecorate the flat, but that's going to mean Steve achieving the biologically impossible: a man having an opinion about fabric. His dilemma is made no easier when, dropping by Susan's apartment unannounced, he gets a view of Sally that opens his eyes to the beauty that is Australia. Patrick is having car trouble, or so he says. And Jeff's old buddy "Captain Subtext" is there to explain it all.

Susan's sexually frank parents are coming to dinner, and Steve's worried. Seeing a nature TV show with Susan that talks about the need for the male of the species to continue to "enjoy" himself doesn't exactly help. Patrick and Jeff become obsessed with, shall we say, publicity rights. Meanwhile, Jane has discovered a talent for identifying people's ideal celebrity friend just by looking at them, and she has a surefire technique for meeting and befriending those celebrities. TV news presenter Mariella Frostrup stars as herself ... though her cellphone seems to be having an identity crisis.

more

The boys are in a bar, as always talking about girls and sex, this time focusing on their obsession with female breasts and the fantasy the left and right ones would somehow be two separate entities, doubling their fascination, or be doubled: enough to contemplate a SciFi plot. When desperate single Jeff spots a nice-looking girl, Steve and Patrick encourage him to make a move after she shows sole interest, but first have to learn and wave his theory of the nude zone: a male (at least in his case) cannot remain in female presence for more then a few minutes before his mind has constructed a fully nude image of the girl, which renders him too horny-mad to retain command of any decent faculty, hence disables any flirting. Indeed it takes only a few sentences for Jeff, without a word from the girl, to expose his particular brand of innocent-insane obsession and give the unprovoked impression he collects women's ears! To his immense relieve, the girl's friend who then arrives explains she's Israeli and doesn't understand a single word of English, unprecedented luck in Jeff's love-frustrated experience, but it doesn't take him long to sort of repeat the self-embarrassing process, now with translation into Hebrew, as well as unintentionally insulting the less foxy interpreter as such...

While tidying up Steve's flat, Susan finds a hot tape we'll just call "Inferno" ... but that's not the FULL title. At a dinner party featuring all the friends, plus Jane's ambiguous guest, he is called upon to give a detailed review of the film and, by extension, a defense of the whole male heterosexual psyche. Jane also takes this evening as her opportunity to proclaim her variety of "open" vegetarianism.

more

When Susan calls Steve, he instantly looses all his command of conversation, yet they agree to meet and she offers to cook, according to Sally an offer of free sex plus catering. Steve's report to the mates is treated to Jeff's dubious 'foreplay tips', such as avoiding at all cost to be even a moment, while undressing, naked except for socks, and one the mentioned girls overhear entering the bar: using the girlfriend's first name to call the celebrity one usually thinks of during sex. Jane is absurdly confident her own bisexuality makes her eligible for pure gay hunk Howard and switches all labels and concepts potentially implying any homophobia. Sally haughtily turns down going out with Patrick by assuring him she won't have sex with him ever, till Susan explains his nickname "donkey" refers not to his mental abilities but to his intimate endowment, which cancels all Sally's prejudices, even if he is politically about her complete opposite. Steve and Susan's evening goes trough, burdened by misunderstandings and...
