Theo learns that Howard has broken up with Julia to devote more time to his studies. Howard knows that Theo wants to ask her out, and offers his blessing. Theo justifies his behavior by saying that his relationship with Justine is already in shambles. Theo is nervous about talking to Julia, so he has Denny approach her on his behalf. Theo is outraged when Julia ends up asking Denny for a date. Theo impatiently goes over to Julia's apartment and asks her out. He claims that he and Justine aren't seeing each other. Julia learns the truth from Justine, and neither woman will speak to Theo. Rudy asks Cliff for $31.05 to buy Clair a fake gold diamond necklace for her birthday. She promises to do chores in exchange for the money, but soon loses her enthusiasm. Cliff criticizes the job she has done. However, Clair sees Rudy working and lavishes her with praise because she thinks she is just trying to be helpful. Cliff eventually approves of Rudy's work and tells her that the debt is paid.
