Emma, with help from Manny, tries to cheer up Spike on her separation from Snake, especially as it is Spike and Snake's third wedding anniversary. They call in Caitlin from Los Angeles for some female bonding. Just after Caitlin arrives, Snake returns home, just to give Spike an anniversary gift he had purchased months earlier. After Snake leaves, Spike opens the package to find a sapphire necklace - her birthstone - and although she looks touched by the gift, throws it into the garbage. They also plan a female only anniversary party, complete with stripper waiters. The festivities come to a complete halt when one of the strippers physically resembles Snake; after the party, she admits to herself and to Caitlin that she still loves Snake. Meanwhile Spinner remains in limbo between his old friends and his new Friendship Club support network. At a school fair where Spinner sits as the target in the Friendship Club's dunk tank, a still angry Jimmy continually dunks Spinner, and would continue to do so if given the chance. However Marco and Spinner tentatively reconnect. This reconnection is put to the test as Linus, the most extreme of the Friendship Club members, asks Spinner to intercede with Marco in his plans to hold a safer sex seminar as Linus believes that such a seminar promotes sexual activity rather than abstinence which is the only form of safe sex Linus supports. After Miss Hatzilakos reconfirms her support for the seminar, Linus and Spinner decide to hold a protest at the seminar, at which a confrontation complete with derogatory remarks and fisticuffs ensues specifically between Linus and Marco. This confrontation brings Spinner's true allegiances into a clearer light.
