Plot Overview

Nancy and Peter talk in the car after Nancy has gotten sick. Peter, who knows that Nancy sells marijuana, tells her that she is small potatoes and that he doesn't plan to bust her. She agrees to see him for dinner to talk about things.

Meanwhile, Silas and Megan get back together to enjoy their remaining months together. They begin having a lot of sex and Silas punctures one of his condoms with a safety pin; presumably to cause it to fail. Andy, who is now going to Hebrew school, hits on the admissions officer who let him in; she agrees to go out on a date with him.

Nancy, Doug, and Conrad find a house to run their business from. Dean comes to the house and realizes that Conrad is the man who slept with Celia. Conrad offers to let Dean get one punch in, but Dean takes a raincheck because he's never hit a man before. Later, Nancy gets a call from Peter who reminds her of what they did the day before: after dining at the restaurant they flew to Las Vegas and got married.
