Peter arrangiert für Fran eine Verabredung mit einem Arzt. Dieses läuft jedoch schief, was Fran zurück in Elliots Arme treibt. Dieser will Fran zu einer Paar-Therapie überreden, um an seinen Bindungsängsten zu arbeiten. Fran willigt ein, ohne zu wissen, dass sie diejenige ist, die davon profitieren wird: Fran löst sich von Elliot.
Peter sets up Fran for a date with a psychologist, which just pushes her back to Elliot. Elliot asks Fran to join him at therapy to work on his commitment issues, but the therapist (who turns out to be Fran's failed date) is more interested in helping Fran figure out why she pursues unavailable men like Elliot.
Elliot chiede a Fran di accompagnarlo dal suo analista. Fran scopre che la causa di tutti i suoi problemi e' il trauma causatole dal coming out di Peter. Per appianare la situazione, i due partecipano a una terapia di gruppo volta a gestire la rabbia.
