The apartment next door is being sublet by Laura Filbert, and P.J. gets a crush on her. Cal has his coworker Hanson hire Randy freelance to write copy for the ""CrackerTime Cracker"" ad campaign. P.J. gets advice from Johnny on how to talk to Laura, but is too shy and ends up running away from her. Johnny hits on her instead, and sleeps with her five times that night. P.J. gets mad at Johnny for two days. At work, Cal baits Pike at Philips against each other until they get into a brawl in the conference room. Hanson tells Cal that Randy has some excellent ideas for the campaign, and Cal steals them from Hanson because Randy was supposed to suck and cause Hanson to get fired. It turns out that Hanson set up Cal, and that Randy's work has the ""awful rancid stench of quality.""
