Storyline

Charlotte feels ready to date properly again, and has a lovely evening with divorced Eric, till he sees her (well, Trey's) apartment 'of the rich' and instantly considers them incompatible. Samantha sees Richard at lunch time with another woman, apologizes when he's coolly insulted by her insinuations, but still follows him, breaks in a hotel room and actually catches them for what he can just call 'only sex'. As Mr. Big is leaving New York indefinitely for a job in Napa, the Californian wine country, Carrie plans a glorious last day, gets ideal new shoes and has a romantic coach ride in Central Park- only to have it cut short by the news pregnant Miranda needs to go to hospital, where her water breaks right on Carries shoes. After the excitement about baby Brady, it's a big dip again as Big has already left, leaving her only a Mancini record and plain tickets in his empty apartment.

Trivia

The episode "I Heart NY", which is a "love letter" to New York according to Darren Star, was assumed by many to be a reaction to the terrorist attacks on the USA of 11 September 2001. The episode however, was actually written, filmed and titled before September 11, and shown soon afterward. The timing was a coincidence.

Goofs

When Charlotte is telling Samantha about Miranda's baby, you can clearly tell that the hospital used, is the same as the one used in Sex and the City: My Motherboard, My Self when Miranda is suppose to be in Pennsylvania where her mother dies.

Quotes

Samantha Jones: Sex with an ex can be depressing. If it's good you can't get it anymore. If it's bad you just had sex with an ex.
Carrie Bradshaw: It wouldn't be bad.
Samantha Jones: Oh.

User Reviews

Its about how she loves her city more than any other guy, because her city isn't as bad as u may think it is...

I just had broken up with this guy i was so deeply in love with.. he left me because of things i did in my past , he couldn't love me for me. so i was crying like crazy and saw that sex in the city was on i watched it made me smile and think, She said " sometimes you have to let go of your past and of who you were , to become who you will be today " ... and that their is only one GREAT love in life that u will find and never ever forget. so it really made me think and helped me as well.. this show is great , its actually very realistic thats what i like about it. i recommend it... for young sexy woman that are dating here and there.
