The next morning, Jess asks Schmidt and Nick to play along with her act so the three of them pretend to be professional dancers when Sam approaches them from the bedroom. To keep up with the bit, Nick starts to ‘leap’ ungracefully around the room. Soon after this, Sam leaves the apartment.

Hearing a female voice inside the stall. Bearclaw thinks there's a woman being harmed, he calls out and Sam replies causing him to bash the door down, only to find his "love" Jess with Sam. All of Jess' lies unravel and the truth is spilled out. Nick enters the bathroom to help Jess attempt to explain herself. The scene cuts when Nick leaves them all in the bathroom confused and angry. 

The next day, Sam appears at Jess' door. He tells her that he doesn't care what her name is, who she is, her interests, likes or dislikes, or that he doesn't want her to care about him.
