Three's a crowd as Sean and Beverly are forced to consider a writing partnership with Tim, while Carol and Helen discover they have a bedfellow in common. Meanwhile, Matt receives a lucrative yet dubious invitation.

Sean's former writing partner Tim continues to press his legal claim against The Opposite Of Us. He's demanding to be part Sean and Beverly's new show. As always, Sean is inclined to make the best of it, while Beverly can't imagine anything worse.

It is the love that dares not speak its name - and that name is Merc Lapidus.

As Matt's financial woes go from bad to worse, he's presented with two dubious propositions. Morning suggests distributing a sex tape that the two of them made years ago (of which Matt has absolutely no recollection). Meanwhile, Matt's agent comes to him with an even more unsavory offer, putting Matt's thimbleful of morals to the test.

Carol is shocked to learn that she and Helen have more in common in the bedroom department than she initially expected.
