Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Charlie's latest, unusually conservative, classy girlfriend, Lydia, makes her entry in the beach-house in the Harper's hated ma Evelyn's style, almost instantly hurting everybody's feelings, soon in bed and in his favorite restaurant too, but Charlie keeps denying the obvious resemblance till the ugly Oedipal truth becomes too painfully obvious to deny when he sees how every second with her is torture for her two nice boys she brings along for Jake (who also plays 'I have boobs') to babysit, as bad as for him and Alan all their traumatizing youth.
