Felicity and Ben are lolling in bed, bathed in sunlight. Felicity recounts a dream that she just had. Ben was wearing a suit, and she was wearing a long dress. They were on an escalator, and her dress got caught in it. Then, rabid monkeys were chasing them, and Ben wouldn't help her. Ben promises that the next time they are chased by wild monkeys, he'll save her. Felicity baby-talks to him and then the phone rings. Ben answers it and it is his mother, who is very upset about Ben's father. When he gets off the phone, Felicity asks what is wrong, but Ben states that he doesn't want to talk about the "crap with his dad." Felicity says that he can talk to her about it at any time. Ben gets dressed and leaves to go play basketball with Sean. It looked like he was wearing black briefs when he stood up to get dressed. I'll let you draw your own conclusions about him sporting such underwear.
Knoll and Gnatalie are sitting across a desk from a judge. They've come in for the annulment and have neglected to fill in the grounds for annulment part of the form. When the judge asks, Knoll beats around the bush and mutters something about a problem with his "equipment" not working. Geez, didn't he listen when I told him to get rid of that iMac? The judge figures out that Knoll is claiming impotency. Gnatalie declares that, not only is Knoll not impotent, he's the "best lover" she's ever had and she leaves. I would have thought that she had slept with more than one guy before she met Knoll. The judge tells them to "feel free to come back when [they] have [their] stories straight."
Sean and Ben are playing basketball at an outdoor court, and Sean is wondering if it is wrong to charge Knoll $25 more than he was charging Julie. Ben is more interested in playing an aggressive game of hoops than making small talk, and he tells Sean to "shut up and play." Julie appears to inform Sean that she has completed her confessional video. Ben really starts to play rough, and Sean is elbowed in the nose. He thinks it is broken and he runs home. Julie runs after Ben to ask him what is wrong. Ben says it was an accident. Julie presses him, and he admits that he found out that his father has been missing for four days. His mother wants him to file a missing persons report. Julie babbles that "everything is reversed" because in their freshman year, Ben helped her find her birth mother. She tells him that he was a great support when she was looking for her birth father and offers to help him.
