A bachelor, he has what some of his colleagues' desire - an apartment for hanky-panky. With the promise of promotion dangled before him, Chuck lends the senior executives his place for their extramarital trysts, but he becomes more than a little conflicted when he learns that Fran Kubelik, the object of his affection, is the mistress of his boss, the man who holds the key to both Chuck's flat and his future.

When Izzy's irascible Bubbie brings in Hannah the matchmaker, the emancipated modern young woman recoils from such an outdated way of dating - but Hannah the yenta still has a trick or two left with her old world ways.
