Back at the gym, Peeler's laying on a bench talking to Doug. "I've been thinking kinda about maybe doing my own place," he ventures. "Like my own gym. There's not enough room here to do classes. Doug says, "Yeah." Brian offers, "Maybe you'd like come over, bring your clients, and I have my clients, and maybe I could put you on as director? You're good with people." Peeler's Palace of Pain and Pleasure is looking for investors, if anyone's interested. Jackie's been gone one whole day and a mutiny is afoot.

Andre's doing a little workout of his own while Erika picks up after the kids. He says, smiling with glee, "Guess what I heard earlier today? I think Brian's thinking about opening his own gym. It sounded to me like he was asking Doug to go with him." Erika knows just what to do. "I think I should let Jackie know. It affects her business."

Erika gathers the trainers for a meeting, but isn't commanding their attention. Rebecca yawns. “Erika stepping in is comical. She doesn't have what Jackie has." Jesse tries to defend Erika, "Give her a little respect." But no one is listening. If he still had an orange in his pants, maybe then they'd listen. At least Rebecca would. And maybe Doug.

It's dinner time in Palm Springs and Sarah's putting the hard top down on her sports car. Jackie's wearing one of the sexy ensembles Mimi threw on the floor. They drive off together; Sarah's unseen husband and kids will be eating Hot Pockets for dinner tonight.

At the restaurant, they both seem to be in date-mode. Sarah says, "I don't think I've ever spent this much time with a lesbian before." There should be an Adopt-A-Lesbian program so rich women who can take us to their homes in Palm Springs and buy us dinner. Out of the blue, Sarah asks, "Do you have damage?" What the hell does that mean? Jackie doesn't skip a beat, and answers cryptically, "Yeah." Laughing, she follow it up with, "You didn't expect that, did you?" None of us did. Jackie tells Sarah she thinks being gay is genetic, as well as an outcome of social upbringing. She suspects her mother and her grandmother are probably both gay. Having met Jackie's mom in last week's episode, I can see where Jackie might think mom doth protest too much.

Sarah says, "I probably would've been a lesbian if I saw you then." She shares with us, “Jackie's the kind of girl who can make men, women, dogs excited.” Yes, even dogs. Not just biters like Mimi, but actual dogs.

Jackie pulls out the classic “my girlfriend doesn't understand me” tactic. “We're having problems, very serious problems,” she confides in Sarah, who she's known all of 24 hours. Never having experienced Mimi, Sarah says, “Let's call her right now.” Jackie's gulping down her wine as they continue like this all the way though dinner. Jackie admits, “I think she was flirting with me and I kind of liked it.”

Then, because she's a total imbeltard who's read too many Penthouse Forum stories while her husband lies snoring next to her, Sarah suggests that Jackie witnessing Mimi kissing another woman would be “hot.”

Dazzled by the flirting, Jackie the Feminist doesn't even notice Sarah just under-valued lesbian relationships everywhere. All she says is, “I'd kill her.” Jackie starts upping the ante. “Basically, if you're straight and around me, your in trouble….just kidding.” Sarah flips her hair in that way some women do, and says, “You're like my twin.” Jackie agrees, “It's like looking in a mirror. She just makes me smile.” You're both making me gag.

Jackie continues showing off. “You're going to understand so much about me, if you see my world.” Sarah eagerly says, “Let's go!” Jackie warns her, “We'll end up in tears and clutching each other at the end of the night.” What world does she plan on showing Sarah exactly? Mimi's World?

Sarah says, “I don't think we'll be crying at all.” Jackie says, coyly biting her finger, “But you will be clutching…” Gah. Check, please.

Sarah picks up the tab, Jackie tells her that was the first meal she didn't have to pay for in a long, long time. Sarah hasn't paid for a meal in a long, long time either--that's her husband's credit card she's using.

As they walk back to the car and later, into the house, they are all over each other, arm in arm, holding hands. Somewhere in there, Jackie says, “I love my girlfriend,” but back at the house, they're still at it. Jackie uses the excuse of looking at Sarah's wedding ring to hold her hand. Sarah pushes even farther saying, “You have to come to my room.” Jackie's not prepared to put her money where her mouth is, or her mouth where the money is, or something, because she offers instead, “Walk me to my guest quarters.”
