She then feels that this little adventure may help her further her knowledge of Trevor and help decide on what to do with him... This episode contains a number of black & white flashbacks, offering scenes of Sophie's, Champ's and Claire's youth. Obviously, Trevor was left out of the loop...

Champ tells Trevor that everytime he meets a girl, he ends up in a relationship. For once, he would like to experiment a one-night stand, to know how it feels. With Halloween just around the corner, Trevor feels this is the perfect opportunity to make his friend's dream come true. He also invites Claire's other patients to the party, telling them to forget their inhibitions and to just have fun. As for Claire, he challenges her, certain that she would turn down any man even if he were perfect for her. To prove his point, he searches and finds Alex, who seems a perfect match. While Claire first does seem reluctant, she finally falls under the man's charm - much to Trevor's dismay.

Trevor is growing desperate. Caught between his desire to return home and his jealousy at seeing Claire having a serious relationship with Alex, he makes his first mistakes as a love counselor. On one side, he encourages a man to use a ""sure score"" pick-up technique that gets him the woman he wants but leaves him distressed and disgusted with himself for he feels he cannot be with a woman that would fall for such a trick. On the other end of the tunnel, his friend and roommate Champ is starting a new relationship and Trevor can't help but intervene - and in ways that pushes the woman away rather than bring her closer. And somewhere in the middle, Trevor himself is caught up in a strange relationship with Helen Davis, a woman he met at the bar. They're both attracted to each other, but Trevor tells Champ he can't have a relationship with a mortal, or he'll lose his immortality. And yet, he might just be desperate enough to not want it anymore...

While looking for good romance videos to rent, Trevor meets Dan, the coach of a local hockey team. He invites him to a party at the bar, deciding that he should help him find his true love - namely, his neighbor Susan, a woman who seems to keep to herself, avoiding conversation and all contact with other people. Meanwhile, Claire is wondering why Alex seems to be avoiding her and fears that he may want to dump her. But the truth is that he is falling in love with her and afraid of his own feelings for her. Trevor finally manages to draw Susan to the party and have her meet Dan. But when she realizes that the man is trying to set her up, she flees. She later explains to Trevor that she cannot start a relationship because she only has six months left to live.
