Ally and Glenn continue their flirtation, which leads to their conscious avoidance of each other, which does not go unnoticed by the others at Cage and Fish. She insists he’s too much of a “boy” for her, but continues to be attracted to him. He’s drawn to her because she’s a little older. Both use Jenny’s feelings as an excuse to not date as well. John takes off for parts unknown, which worries the ladies of the firm, especially Nelle. Richard takes it in stride, and takes over John’s abandoned hole off of the unisex. Raymond is sued by a former coworker for sexual harassment, and asks Jenny to represent him. At first he wants her to do this because she’s a girl, and cute, with freckles. He later admits to trusting her abilities. While working on the case, the two start to feel an attraction. Raymond runs the idea by Glenn, who initially is angry, and refuses to let Raymond work his wiles on Jenny. Later, Raymond and Jenny talk about dating, and are both open to it. After performing a song at the bar, to the delight of Elaine, Coretta, and Ling, Raymond walks Jenny home, and they share a kiss. Ally visits her therapist, and continues to be alone.
