And speaking of cats, Jess and Spats have their first on-screen tift. Captain Parker begins working at Regency, and Lenora begins her flirtation with him.

The promotion that Jess expected goes instead to Paul, who's the one in charge when an obnoxious passenger develops a medical emergency in flight. Meanwhile, Randy hits on a passenger on the flight, not realizing that he had slept with both her and her sister (who is accompanying her on the flight) in high school and then tossed them aside.
When Randy and Paul are chosen for random drug testing and Randy doesn't have to pee, Paul agrees to take the test for him. So when Randy's test comes back negative for drugs and Paul's comes back positive, Paul wrestles with confessing to taking both tests or having his job terminated. Meanwhile, Maggie tries to throw the perfect formal dinner party -- with disasterous results.

So she attends, trying to pass Paul off as her new boyfriend, but she winds up in a drunken stupor and proposes a curse instead of a toast before writing ""Just Married. . .A Cow"" on the back of Jake's car.
Mac puts aside his fear of flying to join the crew on the airline's new route to L.A., where the sight they see most is the car-rental desk.
When going through some old magazines at a thrift sale, the gang discovers an old issue of Playpen with an article entitled ""The Girls of Pan Am: Around the World in 80 Ways,"" which features model Linda Zernick. . .who bears an uncanny resemblance to Lenora Zwick. Meanwhile, Jess keeps having chance encounters with all of Mac's ex-girlfriends, so she invites them all over to dish.
