Jonah and Amy are back from their suspension, which was brought on by the events of last season's finale, where they had sex on a live stream in the photo room. Their first day back is during the store's back-to-school sale, and while Jonah is getting plenty of attention over the sex tape, Amy gets upset that they're pretending nothing happened with her. After inadvertently causing a 14-year old kid to sexually harass her, Dina calls a sexual harassment meeting in the break room, which gradually devolves into a Q/A about Jonah and Amy's sex tape.
