Plot
Following her divorce, Karen (Megan Mullally)
decides that she would like to spend time with "real people" and after
seeing a roommate needed ad, she decides to be someone's roommate. She
visits Liz (Madonna),
a peculiar office worker and the individual who put up the ad. At
meeting Liz, Karen becomes intrigued and decides to be her roommate. The
two go to a bar, in search for men. While there, Karen and Liz discover
they both like the same man, which prompts the two to fight over him.
As a result, they are no longer welcomed back to the bar. The two go
home with Liz no longer wanting to be roommates with Karen. Karen tries
to change Liz's mind, but to no avail. Liz tells Karen to write a check
to the landlord, Walker Property Management, for her side of the rent.
Unbeknownst to Liz, Karen owns the apartment building, and decides she
does not want Liz as a tenant in her building.
Meanwhile, when Will (Eric McCormack) sprains his ankle, he begins taking painkillers, as prescribed by his doctor, to relieve himself from the pain. His friends, Grace (Debra Messing) and Jack (Sean Hayes),
begin seeing changes in Will's personality, including him not going to
work, and not reacting to a messy apartment as he is compulsively
obsessed with cleanliness. One day, he notices that his pill bottle has
gone missing and is searching for them, not knowing that Grace and Jack
have taken it. They will not give him the bottle back as they believe he
has a problem. At the end, Will admits to his problem and promises his
friends he will stop taking them.
