Storyline

Erica, feeling like a failure since high school, decides to ask Ethan, who is going through a divorce and recently moved back to Toronto, to escort her as her make believe boyfriend to her high school reunion. There are two people who Erica is not looking forward to seeing at the reunion. One is Katie, who has always gotten under Erica's skin. But the more important one is Zach Creed, the popular kid to whom she lost her virginity. Beyond the fact that the sex with Zach was bad, he humiliated her after the fact. Erica feels that experience with Zach has negatively tainted the way she now views potential boyfriends. Dr. Tom gives her the opportunity to redo that experience with Zach. But based on what she sees at the reunion, the one person that Erica may instead want to lose her virginity to the second time around is Alex Berlin, who was then the quiet class geek. Her time with Alex both then and now makes her realize who is really important in her life. Written by Huggo

Plenty of Fish (#1.3)
10 July 2012 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

I guessed in the last episode that she will get with Ethan ad here we are, already in the next episode they are making out. Lets see how it will be now. I don't think that she will be in a great relationship right at the stat, this would kind of go against the idea of the show.

Her virginity loss story was pretty fun. Was nice to see her revenge on Zach and that she ended up losing her virginity to Alex.

Now, it is interesting how this episode ends. So far after every incident we saw that changing the decision she regretted didn't change her life she the way she wanted even though she leaned a lesson each time that would help her love herself more. In this case even though she didn't end up with Alex, her not losing virginity to Zach might have helped her not to be so mistrusting to men
