Alan moves to Los Angeles and goes apartment hunting with his friend, Rick. When moving in, they meet his neighbors, Jill and Sherri, and learn that his apartment may not have been the great deal that he was lead to believe.
When Rick's casting director friends don't show up to Alan's party as promised, Rick gets Alan's nerdy friend, Craig, to pretend to be a casting director.
The guys and the girls separately talk about the events of the party in the previous episode where Alan and Jill almost kissed and Sherri fell for Alan's nerdy friend, Craig, who she thought was a casting director.
