When Carrie follows Charlotte to a performance by a woman in Chelsea who speaks nor eats, she meets famous Russian painter and sculptor Aleksandr Petrovsky, who is intrigued by Carrie's cavalier attitude. Samantha, who bravely announces she is 45 and getting glasses, tries to rejuvenate herself by an intimate hair-coloring after finding gray down there, which proves disastrous. Charlotte gets pregnant but has a miscarriage and is plunged into depression until she finds inspiration in a TV documentary on Liz Taylor. After Robert declared his love on a cookie, Miranda gives Brady's first birthday party, breaks her promise to Carrie not to have a ('scary') clown and finds herself declaring her love to daddy Steve, who reciprocates.
