Skippy falls in love with a friend of Mallory's but is too shy to talk to her, so he asks Alex to do it on his behalf. Unfortunately when he goes to speak to the girl, she gets the wrong idea and assumes it's Alex who likes her instead.
Tropes:
- Forceful Kiss: Jane gives a couple of these to Alex. Although they may not have been entirely forceful as it's implied that Alex sort of enjoyed them.
- Gibberish of Love: Skippy immediately starts babbling like an idiot when he first tries to talk to Jane himself.
- Good Angel, Bad Angel: Discussed when Alex is explaining his actions to Skippy towards the end.
- Alex: It's like there's two Alexs. A good Alex and a bad Alex. The good Alex is telling me "Stop, she's Skippy's girl".Skippy: What does the bad Alex say?Alex: "Shut up, good Alex. Take 'er, she's yours".
- Ho Yay: Played for Laughs and Lampshaded when Alex tackles Skippy onto his bed and he notices how awkward things look.
- I Didn't Mean to Turn You On: When Alex talks to Jane on Skippy's behalf, she mistakes him asking if she's already in a relationship as him asking her out on a date which she accepts. Plus it turns out she's been in love with Alex since childhood.
- Love at First Sight: Skippy falls in love with Jane the moment he sees her.
