"I got to thinking about relationships and partial
lobotomies. Two seemingly different ideas that might
just be perfect together - like chocolate and peanut
butter." - Carrie
Carrie and Aidan are interrupted in bed by the voice

her of herself. On the new gallery girl's first day,

isn't such a bad thing.

parts.
Meanwhile, Carrie finds Aidan at his bar flirting with
the waitress and practically ignoring Carrie. Carrie
realizes she's being punished for her big mistake. She
offers to walk Aidan's dog while he works and again
finds him hanging out with the sexy waitress. She angrily
goes home. Aidan shows up and says he's pissed and wants
Carrie to remove Big from her life. She says she can't
do that and pleads that Aidan has to forgive her. He
surrenders his anger and takes her in his arms.
