"Some people are settling down, some people are
settling and some people refuse to settle for anything
less than butterflies." -Carrie
The girls are invited to the unlikely wedding of Carrie's
supposedly gay friend, flamboyant lounge singer Bobby
Fine to society lady Bitsy Von Muffling. Stunned by
the news, Carrie thinks about what it takes to make
a relationship work. She asks: When it comes to saying
'I do,' is a relationship a relationship without the
zsa-zsa-zou (aka: that special something that gives
you butterflies in the stomach)?
Charlotte's new 'just sex' partner, Harry, invites
her to be his date for the big Hamptons wedding. Charlotte
worries about his crass behavior, but accepts provided
that hairy Harry wax his back. In another not so clear
relationship, Miranda inexplicably finds herself having
sex with Steve. Meanwhile, Samantha calls upon the services
of her ex, Richard, in another way: she arranges to
throw a party at his house in the Hamptons.
On the way out to the Hamptons, Carrie runs into Jack
Berger, who tells her he broke up with his girlfriend.
Carrie can't help but feel that zsa-zsa-zou. At Samantha's
fabulous pool party, Carrie and Berger have a heart
to heart about relationships past, but it's too much
for Berger to handle and he departs suddenly and swiftly.
Carrie wonders if she should just throw in the towel
and settle for a so-so relationship. Samantha struggles
to enjoy herself because of the appearance of three
of Richard's bikini-clad bimbo babes. She accuses the
party-crashers of freeloading but realizes that she
herself is still hurting over the end of her affair
with Richard.
At Bobby and Bitsy's wedding, the girls find themselves
moved by the mutual love of the bride and groom. It appears
Bobby and Bitsy do have the zsa-zsa-zou. Obviously inspired,
Charlotte tells Harry mid-dance that she may be falling
in love with him. He says he shares her feelings but that
he's Jewish and he has to marry a Jew. Also on the dance
floor, Berger tells Carrie that he'd like to go on a date
with her before they break up. Carrie is reminded why
she refuses to settle for anything less than butterflies.
