The episode also picks up on the storyline that began in the season one finale involving the love triangle of Jeff, Britta, and Annie. Jeff and Britta begin a seemingly-passionate relationship, but the revelation that Jeff got involved with Annie at the end of the previous year disgusts the group. The members start to take out their frustrations on one another. The group is on the verge of breaking up, and Jeff must bring them to reconciliation.
