Sean is unpacking groceries when Ben walks in and starts looking for a snack. Sean tells him not to touch any of the low-fat stuff, because it's all for Julie. Because, you know, we women don't like to eat any yucky full-flavored foods. Ben comments that it must be getting serious if Sean is shopping for Julie now. Sean says that Julie arrives today; they're having dinner tonight, going to the Botanical Gardens tomorrow, and he's getting tickets to a concert by Julie's favorite band, Tart. If you looked up "trying too hard" in the dictionary, Sean's picture would be right there. Ben advises Sean to slow down. Sean says that Julie is coming all the way from Woodstock to see him. Ben asks whether they've talked about their relationship at all. Sean says that he didn't want to do it over the phone. Ben thinks that Sean should "keep [his] hopes realistic," since he hasn't seen Julie in a long time. Wow, Ben could have been a little more tactful there, although I guess it's better for Sean to get upset now than to get his heart broken later. Meghan walks in and asks for her stuff. Sean points it out. Meghan says that she'll kill Sean if any of her underwear is missing. Sean stops her and apologizes again, but says that he needs to see the thing with Julie through. Meghan points to her face and says, "See this? This is me, not caring. Couldn't be more over you." Meghan walks to the door, then stops and tosses Sean her keys and suggests that he give them to Julie, "not that [they] have a chance in hell."
Noel and Felicity look at the classifieds. Noel says that it's impossible to find a studio apartment in New York City for under $1200. Which is one of the many reasons I don't live in New York City. Felicity is sure that Noel will find a place. Felicity taps her pencil on the paper annoyingly and Noel asks if she's doing Morse Code. Ah, trouble in paradise. Felicity apologizes and starts to stay something, but then stops herself. They go back to their papers, and then Felicity blurts, "It's just Ben. He was such a jerk on O-Chem today." Noel asks what Ben did. Felicity considers what she should tell him, and then says that it's not worth getting into. Noel asks if she's sure, and Felicity says that she is, then moves over next to him and gives him a kiss. Felicity and Noel start looking at the paper, and Felicity says that Noel will definitely need a roommate. Noel tells her to savor university housing. Felicity stares at Noel lovingly, and he asks what she's doing. Felicity says that she just loves being with him, and Noel returns the compliment. They stare at each other for a minute, and then Noel says that he wishes he were with her and already had an apartment.
