Hello, Elise Castle.

Hey, Mike Jensen.

So we are here today to discuss plus one is the loneliest number.

Not my favorite.

Oh, interesting.

All right.

I mean, I just, I don't know.

I guess a lot of people have said that, like, season five isn't their favorite. So this is the only episode that I was just kind of like, thank you next. Well, this originally debuted August 18th, 2002. That's why. There you go. It was directed by MPK. It was written by Cindy Chupac. Let's do our DVD recap. Why does one minus a plus one feel like it

adds up to zero? Carrie brings in Samantha to create the perfect book launch, but before the big night,

Samantha's perfect appearance is minus appeal. At the party, Carrie finds herself missing the benefits

of a plus one, especially when she meets fellow author Jack Berger.

Charlotte finds her home invaded by her ex-husband's judgmental mother.

Miranda suffers a case of baby interruptus when she brings a date home.

So this is a commentary episode.

So I have a few behind the scenes things.

And this is largely based on Cindy Chupac's experience. They had won. This is a commentary episode. Okay. So I have a few behind the scenes things.

And this is largely based on Cindy Chupac's experience.

They had won the Emmy Award.

And it's sort of about her, it was about her winning an Emmy and then going home alone.

And sort of her feelings on that.

So that's, that's kind of what sparked this episode.

Because we start with, there is one day, even the most cynical New York woman drinks up her whole life.
