Everyone's Junk Comes Out
The group therapy session goes haywire after Mitchell reveals that he hasn't been intimate with Cam in over a month.  Instead of helping the group get back on track, Dr. Radcliffe leaves to go pick up her son.  Phil begs her not to leave while everyone's junk is out.

 

Haley Breaks Things Off with Andy
Haley meets with Andy to talk about their last hook up.  Andy feels guilty for cheating on Beth and puts on embarrassing underwear to stop himself.  Haley interrupts Andy to tell him that's exactly what she wants too.  She wants to be a better person that doesn't hook up with an engaged man.  This break up is only temporary as we find out Haley sleeps with Andy once again.  Will Haley and Andy's relationship continue?

 

Jay Opens His Junk Drawer of Feelings
After refusing to open up about his feelings during the whole therapy session, Jay finally opens up about his childhood and his relationship with his father.  Jay wonders if his father even knew that he loved him since he was never allowed to show his feelings.  Gloria's plan to have Jay be more accepting of his children's feelings must have worked.
