Carrie y Mr Big, que ahora son amigos, comienzan a salir de copas juntos. En una de sus escapadas, Carrie conoce a un hombre. Es el dueño de un club de jazz. Tras charlar un rato, Carrie accede a darle su número de teléfono. Por otro lado, Miranda, que se queda de piedra cuando su novio hace sus necesidades “menores” delante de ella, decide hacer lo mismo para observar su reacción. Sin embargo, al final las cosas no salen como ella había previsto ya que éste reacciona con indiferencia ante la provocación.

Carrie has another date with Ray King at his place, and confesses she doesn't really like jazz, because it makes no sense; she tells the girls she had the most intense orgasm in her life. Miranda claims to have sworn of sex indefinitely; her alternatives are sweets and TV, rapidly becoming a chocoholic. Samantha declares she has a relationship- with Maria! She tries to be passionate as always, but is told to make love, not porn scenes- and is quit happy learning about lesbian-style lust in a relationship. Charlotte and Trey get active in bed again, and then in other rooms; he's happy again, she gets so frustrated she runs back to her apartment, but in the morning accepts to 'marry again'. Carrie reaches the conclusion she can't really talk with Ray, and decides to break up, rather then just become one of his many soon tossed away instruments.
