When the gang treat Paul to a 26th birthday dinner at Mambo Mambo,there are sparks between recently seperated Jess and bartender Mac. So when Maggie takes a call for Jess, she tells Mac that Jess would love to go out with him -- which causes a catfight between the two women. And speaking of cats, Jess and Spats have their first on-screen tift. Captain Parker begins working at Regency, and Lenora begins her flirtation with him.

While Jess and Mac feud over his decision to spend the evening watching a ball game, Maggie goes on a first date with an obnoxious man, and Randy's first date is interrupted by a blind man. Paul thinks he's scored the man of his dreams -- until he realizes who he is.

The promotion that Jess expected goes instead to Paul, who's the one in charge when an obnoxious passenger develops a medical emergency in flight. Meanwhile, Randy hits on a passenger on the flight, not realizing that he had slept with both her and her sister (who is accompanying her on the flight) in high school and then tossed them aside.

When Randy and Paul are chosen for random drug testing and Randy doesn't have to pee, Paul agrees to take the test for him. So when Randy's test comes back negative for drugs and Paul's comes back positive, Paul wrestles with confessing to taking both tests or having his job terminated. Meanwhile, Maggie tries to throw the perfect formal dinner party -- with disasterous results.

Randy's friends are impressed by his palatial pad, but they're shocked at his living arrangements with an older woman. After co-pilot Gary bails on a hunting trip, Rex invites Lenora, who has every intention of seducing him.
