Jealousy, trust issues, and lie detector tests, all in one tidy, funny, and surprisingly touching episode.
When Leanne finds out that Andrew’s partner at work, Gomez, is not only a woman but a hot, unmarried woman, her brain does a full rom-com spiral. Carol tries to talk her down, but it’s Becca and Mary at an exercise class who send her panic into overdrive.
This episode plays with insecurity in a really relatable way, especially for Leanne, who’s just now stepping back into romance. Her conversation with Bill is unexpectedly tender and clarifies a lot about why she’s struggling to fully trust Andrew.And that ending? Andrew bringing home a lie detector machine just to prove he loves her is the kind of ridiculous grand gesture that only works on Leanne, and it totally does.
