Ally experiences vivid hallucinations featuring Barry Manilow. Meanwhile, Richard pairs Ling with Jackson Duper, the latest addition to the firm. Upon their first meeting, Ling realizes that Jackson had previously slept with her under an alias. They are tasked with a challenging case involving a man seeking an annulment due to his wife’s nymphomania, which led to her cheating on him 106 times, along with her lawsuit against the minister she had an affair with. As Jackson navigates the chaos, including a unisex bathroom, Elaine's vibrator, and Melanie’s Tourette syndrome, he begins to doubt his place in the firm. Simultaneously, John proposes to Melanie, but she resists the idea of being tied down, even if it’s through marriage.
