Episode #201"Here We Go Again"

  Jamie and Brenda have just returned from Kevin’s wedding, and Jamie is in tears. Where will he find another roommate? Brenda’s not interested in moving in, but she does loan him $200 to help with the rent; he immediately buys a new jacket with the money. Jamie goes to the bar and is informed that there are no free beers for him; Kevin used to buy all the beer. Steve is also at the bar attempting to find a way to break up with his girlfriend; Jamie’s jacket catches his eye and it occurs to him that his girlfriend would never allow him to own anything that cool. Brenda meets Katie, a sculptor, who’s their new neighbor. Jamie’s back at the bar feeling depressed. He has no job and no roommate. He encounters Steve, whose girlfriend is making his life hell; he’d break up with her, but he’d have to find a new apartment. Jamie tells Steve he has a solution to the problem. Steve takes one look at Jamie’s apartment and thinks he’s gone to heaven. He moves in immediately. Back at the bar Jamie and Steve meet up with Brenda and Katie. Steve drinks a lot and begins to think about going back with his girlfriend; Jamie thinks what Steve needs to make him forget her is a one-night stand. He tries to get Steve and Katie together and thinks he’s succeeded when Katie is with Steve all night at the apartment, but he finds out from Brenda that they sat up all night talking. Jamie tells Steve he’s afraid Steve will bail on him, but Steve says the three months rent he gave Jamie should be proof that he won’t be going anywhere.
