Men, Women & Dogs

While on the job, Jeremiah hits on a woman with his usual pick-up: getting her to take one bite of his chocolate cake, then luring her away from her date. After having sex, Royce asks his date to reimburse him $30 for a $120 meal, because he figured it would only come out to $90. Michelle just wants to get close to Eric, but Betsy keeps getting in the way. At the dog park, Clay obliviously tells the tale of his girlfriend, Jocelyn, who's returning from Southeast Asia weeks late...because she met up with a guy in Germany who had an extra ticket to Cambodia. Clay doesn't put two and two together until he goes to the airport with his new puppy to pick her up. Jeremiah tries to cheer up Clay, but he doesn't want to take advice from a womanizer who gives his best love to his dog. Michelle has trouble making out with Eric with Betsy staring at them. Jeremiah pulls his cake manouevre on a second girl, who soon takes him back to her place. Then he finds out she loves food as much as he does,

Polly tips Jeremiah off that there's a food critic in disguise eating at the restaurant. His jaw drops when he sees her and remembers they had sex, after which he said he'd call her again -- and didn't. Jeremiah saves face with Carmen, the critic, by blaming her for not calling him back and then accepting her apology by having more sex. Eric brings Michelle to the park, which the others don't approve of -- especially after she starts talking in clinical detail about her period. When Aunt Betty finally pays Michelle a visit, she plans to make Eric go out for more pads, which her friend, Nina, disapproves of. Jeremiah goes to the newsstand to see Carmen's review first, but when she only gives the restaurant two stars, he runs around town removing every last copy of it from circulation. Michelle doesn't heed Nina's advice, and blasts Eric until he agrees to go and get her pads. Royce and Clay make Jeremiah feel worse by interpreting Carmen's review as a thinly-veiled slam about his sexual

Jeremiah defies dog laws by bringing Wolfgang on the beach. Animal Control Officer Zajac has something to say about that, but first he'll have to catch Jeremiah to ticket him. Clay takes a liking to Summer, a street artist who takes a liking to his face. He agrees to let her sketch it. At the restaurant, Royce thinks he's finally found his equal in Kim, a penny-pincher who tells Jeremiah he overcharged her -- by a quarter. Plus tax! They agree to split dinner sometime. Zajac tracks Jeremiah at work to beat him down. While Summer is sketching Clay on the beach, she tries to get him to strip naked, but when he refuses, she says she'll just work around it. Zajac gets a new motorcycle and needs to start writing tickets to justify its expense. During their date, Kim notices she's been overcharged again, but doesn't want Royce to take care of it, she wants to skip out without paying. He does, after which they have dirty sex and talk cheap to each other. Literally. Clay returns to Summer's st
