I've seen it happen a million times, well probably not exactly a million because that's dramatic but you get my point. I'm talking about the moment when someone gets into a relationship and then they start valuing the relationship of their significant other over the opinions of their best friend. And who is officially guilty of doing just that? Andrew. And who doesn't like it in the least bit? Stu. Let's the games begin...

Over at Wallflower things seem to be going so well with the site and that the traffic on it is increasing. It's going so great that Big Bird decides to sponsor a frozen yogurt run as a thank you to her employees. The staff doesn't seem to be so excited; I however love froyo and would have lost my mind at the chance of free froyo. Andrew however isn't thrilled that the only reason the traffic at Wallflower is going up is because people are hooking up, breaking up, and then coming back. Keep in mind Andrew is a big supporter of true love. Insert the crowd saying, "awwwwww" here.

Andrew takes to his laptop to type a letter on how hookup apps are killing the dating game and stopping people from finding true love. He however, only had the intention of typing the letter to get some of his frustrations out. Zelda on the other hand found the letter compelling and encouraged him to send it to his boss, which he did! Now listen, I think Zelda is precious in every way possible but this one time, I think she's got it wrong. The point is to type a letter to ONLY let your frustration out. But her charm works every time and Andrew sends the letter. Lydia however didn't seem to be so supportive of the letter and fired Andrew.

Stu of course just revels in the fact that for once Zelda has led Andrew astray and seizes the opportunity to resume his place as the main influencer in Andrews's life, While Zelda just wants Andrew to man up and confront Lydia about her quick firing and oh him, Stu...well he just wants to prove his point that he's right.

Stu won't let it go that Zelda has changed Andrew. While Andrew on the other hand just thinks it's part of being in a relationship that people rub off on each other. After some self-reflection Andrew realizes he is somewhat controlled by Zelda. Which happens to be a good thing, because during some self-reflection of her own, Zelda realizes she is. Turns out she really loves a guy in a shawl collared sweater.

While spending some time with Stu (while Stu was trying to win back control over him) it finally hit Andrew. All the things he once thought were his favorite things weren't his favorite things at all actually, they were Stu's. You think this would be a great revelation for Andrew. Well you would have thought wrong. All it did was turned into more self-reflection. Turns out only does Andrew realize he's controllable...but he has no clue why. To prove she's not controlling Zelda gives Andrew a Nordstrom gift card so he can buy a sweater of his choice. I for one love Nordstrom so I would've been happy with that!

It turns out without someone telling him what he likes or what he's passionate about Andrew has no clue what to do with himself. Enter Stephie, of all people who is determined to help him find a hobby that he loves and more importantly, comes up with his on his own. Turns out, Andrew really loves to run up stairs. I however would find that to be the purest form of torture. He may not love it when he gets done but he's out to find something he can claim as his own and you've got to respect that. The best part, Stephie decides to join Andrew in his stair climbing competition. Once again, let me say she is a much better friend than I would be. She's down for the run...until she finds a cute guy. Classic Stephie as always! Come to find out Andrew isn't the best stair climber like he thought he'd be. Just to recap, people really do this for fun?

After deciding to man up and confront Lydia about getting his job back, Andrew gets a second chance to prove hook up apps are not the way to go. By doing so, it gives him something that he can identify with. Turn out little ole Andrew found his voice afterall.
