Friends Mike, Adam and Ethan are at different points in their lives in terms of their romantic relationships. Mike is married to Lisa, and the two have a young son. Family demands stretch Mike thin in terms of time for himself, and he finds himself getting his “me” time watching movies in his car and thinking Lisa has no idea it’s going on, even though she’s all too aware. Adam has just moved in with his girlfriend, Callie, and the couple is starting to figure out how to balance their life together with the previous freedom of their single lives. Ethan, who is perpetually single, thinks dating the same woman for three weeks is an extended commitment.

When Lisa encourages Mike to meet with a young female colleague seeking professional advice, Mike hesitates but soon discovers that she is attractive, sports-savvy and able to hang with the guys. After meetings between Mike and his new friend become more frequent, Lisa is prompted to join them, and she and Mike are surprised by her unique proposition. Meanwhile, morning commutes become less solitary for Adam when Callie starts calling him on the way to work, and Ethan attempts to eliminate indications that his relationship with a new girl is becoming serious.

Callie finds a lost puppy from an elderly neighbor, but Adam takes the credit for rescuing the puppy and the neighbor shows her appreciation to Adam too generously. Meanwhile, Lisa complains about the noise from their neighbor and Mike planned to confront him and ensure peace and quiet but everything takes an unexpected turn. While Ethans girlfriend wants to meet his wise next-door neighbor face-to-face.

Mike is bummed to learn Lisas pay raise makes her the top wage earner in the family, so he lobbies his boss for just enough of a salary bump to restore him to No. 1. Meanwhile, Callies sexually charged sister proves to be more than Ethan can handle; and Adam finally decides to deal with his bathroom phobia.

Adam tries to atone for ruining Mikes bachelor party years ago by throwing him a second one, which gets out of hand. Meanwhile, Lisa is uncomfortable about having to go on an out-of-town project with a male coworker, so she asks Callie to come along.

Lisa tries to keep track of Mikes whereabouts by using the GPS trackers on their cell phones, and Mike uses reverse psychology to keep tabs on her as well. Meanwhile, Adams boss at Bloke Magazine assigns him to write an article on intimacy, but when Callie stumbles upon his research material, she misconstrues it as a hint to spice up their relationship. Also, Ethan gets into trouble when his organ delivery ends up in the wrong hands.

Mike and Lisa hire a hot young babysitter for Tommy, but the skimpily clad teen brings more teen angst to the household than the Rileys can handle. Meanwhile, when a disabled food-delivery guy accidentally intrudes upon Callies naked dance party, Adam finally confronts her about her habits in the apartment. But when they find out the delivery guy is also a computer whiz and decide to hire him, Adam learns a lesson in indecent exposure the hard way. Also, Mike and Adam try to convince Ethan to get rid of his hideous necklace, but he finds comfort in a new fling who does not see the necklace the same way.
