Beth is hosting an impromtu roundtable discussion with Stephanie, Karin, and Meg about Sam's three divorces at the Book Cafe.
"...Once you know the stories, it's not that bad. First marriage, wife's hidden sexuality, not my fault. Second marriage, well they really shouldn't allow you to get married when you're that drunk and have writing all over your face, Nevada's fault." Sam explains.
"Okay, so what do you think ladies? Who wouldn't be interested? Who wouldn't want to date him?" Beth asks.
"Well the divorces don't bother me, I'd date him. But, not while he's still married." Stephanie says.
"Okay, what about you?" She points to Karin, "Wouldn't you want a date?"
"Actually, I'm not dating at all anymore. See, I figured out that I was only dating guys that were like bad for me, so until I work that out..." She starts.
Beth interrupts, "Whatever! What about you Meg?"
"Well, I don't care about the divorces either, but I wouldn't date him. It's just that he's obviously still in love with this Ivy girl." Meg explains.
"What?!"
Beth leans on him, "She said, 'He's obviously still in love with this Ivy girl."

Luis and Sheridan are still debating about how to tell Ivy that Luis is moving in and she's moving out at Sheridan and soon-to-be Luis' apartment.
"Okay, when are we gonna tell Ivy what is actually gonna happen?" Luis asks.
"Soon! I-I just couldn't before. You saw how upset Hank got! I couldn't do that to her, she's my best friend!"
"Well, Hank's my best friend." Luis argues.
"I'm not your best friend?" Sheridan asks.
"You just said... Of course you're my best friend. Would you please tell Ivy though?"
"All right, all right, at least I'm prepared."
"Okay." Sheridan grabs a tin of freshly baked cookies (Yes, she tried to cook.) and Luis reaches for one, "Oh yes."
She slaps his hand, "Hey!"
"Hey-hey!"
"These aren't for you! Are you upset?" She asks.
"I am now!"
Ivy comes in, "Hey roomie!"
"Okay, bye!" Luis exits.
"Ivy, there's something uh, important I have to tell you."
Ivy gasps, "Are you pregnant?!"
"No! I think there was a little misunderstanding before."
"Um-hmm."
"Umm, when I said that uh, that Luis and I wanted to umm, live together we meant alone together."
Ivy laughs, "Oh my God! Oh, that's funny, I can't believe I did that."
"Oh no sweetie, no! This is my fault, I wasn't clear! I'm really sorry. And listen, you take as much time as you need to move out, okay? There's absolutely no rush."
"Okay." She sits back on the couch.
"Okay. Don't you want a cookie?" Sheridan asks.
"Sure?" Ivy says and Sheridan hands her one, "Thanks."
"Maybe, do you need a tissue?"
Ivy mumbles uh-huh and spits the half-eaten cookie out onto the tissue, "Sheridan, where did you get these?!"
"I made them!"
"Ooh... Good God, they're so yummy!" She re-ingests the previously expelled cookie matter from the tissue.
