Charlie has been going steady with Mia for seven weeks now without the two having any sex, and she's finally ready to consummate the relationship, but every time the two are about to engage in intercourse something goes wrong that delays it. Alan, meanwhile, hooks up with Charlie's previous girlfriend (Kandi), who wants a relationship consisting of nothing but sex.
Tropes
- Catholic School Girls Rule: Kandi dresses as one for a sexual roleplay with Alan, who is playing the part of a priest.
- Kinky Role-Playing: Judith arrives at Charlie's house to drop off Jake while Alan and Kandi are engaged in a roleplay where Alan is a catholic priest and Kandi is a catholic schoolgirl.
- Mistaken Age: When trying to make small talk with Judith and Jake, Kandi assumes that Judith is Jake's grandmother.
- Swapped Roles: Charlie, who has spent his whole life in short-term, shallow relationships based largely on sex that he moves through rapidly, is now in a committed relationship with no sex due to Mia's refusal to have sex with him until she feels it's appropriate. Alan, who had been in a twelve year long marriage and was always the one to espouse the benefits of a more meaningful relationship and establishing real emotional connections, is now hooking up with a woman who only wants sex and is openly uninterested in anything beyond it. Unsurprisingly, Charlie isn't very happy about it, and Alan is thoroughly enjoying himself.
