Monica's relationship with her father is falling apart, made more obvious when her return to Madison after years aboard results in him throwing her out of the house. Lisa Carson, her BFF and old college roommate, takes her in. Turns out Lisa has her own issues with her parents – they're pushing her to date despite her lack of desire. So when Monica joins a Carson family dinner, she lies and says it's starting a relationship with Lisa that brought her back to America.

Lisa goes along with the rouse – it gets her parents off her back and it's only until Monica repairs her relation-ship with her father and moves out. What Monica failed to take into account however is that crush she had on Lisa in college? Yeah, that didn't go away.
