With Nick still traveling through Europe, Hal misses chumming around with his buddy but also misses Nick's financial contribution to the apartment. Hal is behind in rent, and doesn't want to resort to Trixie's other method of payment (wink, wink). He's even had to hire Joel, who he dislikes, for his animal control business as he can't turn down jobs since he needs the income. Just in time, Nick returns home, but he's not alone. He's brought with him is new Belgian wife, Anke. Anke is beautiful, passionate, emotional, controlling and critical of anyone or anything against her own thoughts and beliefs. She and Hal initially get along until she begins to control everything that happens in the apartment. Hal also doesn't like the "puppy dog" way Nick acts with her. Georgia, who wants to enroll at the Emily Carr Institute of Art & Design, wants advice from Anke, who is a self-professed artist herself. Anke denigrates all of Georgia's work, which irks Hal. This is the last straw for Hal who wants Anke out. Anke thinks she's trumped him when she signs a lease for the apartment. The three roommates have come to a head, and Nick ultimately has to make a decision between his best friend and his wife. Meanwhile, Bobbi also needs some money despite receiving Euros in the mail from an anonymous source. She believes the Euros are play money. Tuition for the secretarial course she wants to take has gone up and is now unaffordable to her. The receptionist at the school suggests she earn some easy money as a phone sex operator, a job that goes against all of her puritan attitudes. Written by Huggo See less
