Episode Summary

Add/Edit

John makes a surprise return and is shocked after hearing from Raymond that Richard threw a party in his "hole". After confronting Richard, John gives the office a speech, in which he reveals the reason why and where he left to. Raymond gets Glenn and Ally to double date with him and Jenny. It's Jenny's birthday, and everyone forgets it. Glenn is the only one who didn't get her a present, so he sings a very romantic Elvis song at the bar for her. He asks her back, and she accepts. Ally wonders if she should hook up with John, but the ghost of Larry is still present in her thoughts. Meanwhile, Ling poses nude to boost her TV character; Corretta and Richard find themselves involved in a police investigation on a woman who used to marry rich old men for the money

Elaine: (after hearing that Ally broke up with Glenn) Oh, Ally, I just want you to know that I am here for you.
Ally: Yes, and what am I gonna do about that? [edit]
Ally: Should I love John Cage? He just represents so many of the things I want in a man and he would be the greatest of fathers.
Milter: Well, Alison, you’re begging the assumption that love can be voluntary. True love can often be reduced to three anecdotal questions: How would you feel about raising children with him? How would you feel about sitting in front of a fire and talking about life and a movie, perhaps a book you just read? And how would you feel about him suckling a little whipped cream out of the cup-pith of your navel. Ah yes! Romance would have begotten a different expression on that one.
Ally: But does true love have to be romantic? I mean, really?
Milter: For most people… no. For you? Well... I have a test for that one, too. And answer me honestly. A lot of my patients lie! (Ally nods.) When you’re home and the phone rings, what’s the very first thought that goes through your head? Rrrring!
Ally: Larry.
Milter: So much for John Cage. [edit]
Raymond: Call me an "oink" but I think he still loves her. I don’t think either one of us is getting any tonight.
Ally: Oink!
