Barry gets a date with a girl Ben had a crush on in high school. To show his affection, Ben videotaped a poem he wrote back in high school but didn't actually show the tape to her until now. Barry immediately gets jealous once he finds how well his date and Ben get along and decides to make a tape of his own. Meanwhile, because of his insecurity, Jason's boss demotes Jason after he discovers an ""endowment"" Jason possesses. Bobby comes to Jason's aid and tries to reason with his boss.

Ben is chosen to work on a campaign for a Democratic candidate and attends a campaign function with Bobby. Meanwhile, Barry finds Jason eating dinner with a man and is convinced that he is gay. After getting confronted with this, Jason denies being gay but admits that he is something else - a Republican. Ben then questions the friends' relationship after finding their beliefs differ.

Ben is setting new house rules for the apartment. There might be more to his obsessive behaviour than catches the eye.

Bobby's catchy tune is heard by Barry's boss, who gives Bobby the opportunity to record it while Barry gets the opportunity to produce it. Jason and Ben find a cell phone on the floor of a taxi. After looking through her phone, they come to the conclusion that she is hot and begin fighting over who gets to ask her out.

After Barry gets a peek at Jason's much-larger paycheck, he decides to pick up the check at an expensive French restaurant, spending more on his boss's credit card than he can possibly pay back.
