Episode 2 - Sam's Women (Season 1 Episode 2)



Watched June 2, 2012 -


Sam's success with women is matched only by his insecurity. A beautiful (but stupid) blonde walks into the bar, and Sam puts the moves on her. It's working, but Diane is openly mocking the bimbo for being stupid. Her name is Brandee. "With two e's," she is quick to add. The best line to prove that she's no Mensa candidate is when she says she doesn't want to go to an Australian movie because she doesn't like subtitles.


For the rest of the episode, Sam is serial dating some of his favorite chicks and becoming increasingly frustrated as he realizes that Diane is right, and all of his girls are dumb. He tells Diane he doesn't want to date any intelligent girls, to which Diane thanks him on behalf of all intelligent women. The comedy chemistry between Sam and Diane is already on fire in just the second episode in the series.


Sam's insecurity comes in when he brings in his ex-wife who he took on a date. Allegedly they went to see Mozart's Symphony #42 at Symphony Hall, but the program from the concert is two years old. The rouse doesn't hold up under Diane's cross-examination, and it turns out they just went to see Star Wars again.


Best moment of this episode comes as a result of Diane telling Sam that an intelligent woman would see right through him. Sam lays it on thick on Diane when she isn't expecting it...and lets just say she doesn't see it coming.

Best Line from the Episode: 


Cliff: He's (Sam) been out with a different beautiful dolly each night this week.
Diane: He's over-compensating for feelings of inadequacy with an ostentatious display of hormonal activity.
Norm: That's our Sammy!
