"I think that I was just mistaken for a mother...
by a mother!" -Carrie
Petrovsky continues to open himself up to Carrie, teaching
her the access code and giving her a set of keys for
his apartment. He also reveals that he has a daughter
- Chloe, 22 and living in Paris. He also mentions that
he doesn't want to have any more children, making Carrie
wonder if she'll be willing to give up a man for a baby
that she may or may not want to have.
Samantha's cancer treatments hit a rough spot when
her male physician offends her by mentioning that some
studies show that childless women have an increased
risk for breast cancer. Samantha vows to receive treatment
from a female doctor. Unfortunately, the top female
specialist, Dr. McAndrew, has a months-long waiting
list. Samantha tries namedropping her way into the doctor's
schedule, but to no avail. Luckily, McAndrew's receptionist
idolizes Smith, so a quick mention of his name manages
to get Samantha (and a fellow patient) onto the toughest
list in Manhattan.
Miranda and Steve take their honeymoon, but Miranda
finds it somewhat difficult to totally relax in the
wilderness setting chosen by her husband. The lack of
television, radio and other distractions (along with
Steve's raging libido) drives Miranda crazy.
While Miranda and Steve are on their honeymoon, baby
Brady is entrusted to both Carrie and Charlotte. Carrie
enjoys her time with Brady (taking him fingerpainting
at Petrovsky's), but Charlotte winds up stressing out.
She flips when Brady accidentally winds up seeing a
lovemaking session between her and Harry, convincing
her that she's scarred the child for life. Miranda eventually
assuages Charlotte's fears... somewhat.
Carrie confronts Petrovsky about potentially wanting
a child some day. She says that she thinks that she
could ultimately end up with him, but that she worries
that this issue will eventually tear them apart. Petrovsky
also sees a future for them, but is certain that he
doesn't want to have any more kids. The pair embrace,
leaving the issue unresolved, but Carrie's affections
for Petrovsky continue to grow.
