at the opening of the show, austin bennett prepares for a date with his girlfriend catherine, but discovers her cheating on him ("another saturday night in new york"). he tells his brother jeff, who suggests that the best way to win catherine back is by pretending not to care. jeff volunteers to find dates for them and plans a night on the town ("oh what a difference"). meanwhile, marcy fitzwilliams is agonizing over her breakup with a man named larry. her friend diana bingley, an actuary, suggests some "dating rules" that will determine her ideal rebound time, telling marcy that the best way to find mr. right is by finding mr. wrong ("the actuary song"). austin and jeff end up on a double-date with marcy and diana after setting one up on j-date, despite none of them being jewish. diana is impressed with jeff, but marcy and austin don't share a connection at all. marcy reveals that she is a photographer, while austin tells her that he writes greeting cards, but only as a way of supporting his passion for poetry. austin is unable to explain this without frequently mentioning catherine, to marcy's annoyance ("but i don't want to talk about her"). marcy decides austin is "perfectly wrong" for her. meanwhile, jeff and diana attempt to have sex, but jeff throws his back out. jeff's hospitalization gives marcy a chance to try and continue seeing austin. over a conversation at the coffee shop, marcy equates austin's coffee preferences with his rigid lifestyle choices in general, and explains her own free-spirited nature ("coffee"). austin tries to call catherine and win her back with an impromptu poem, which fails, and marcy agrees to help him write a better one. as jeff returns from the hospital and continues casually dating diana, marcy and austin continue to work on a poem for catherine, while fighting over details along the way. a bartender and cocktail waitress muse that their differences make them a perfect couple ("the perfect romance"). after austin completes the poem, marcy tells him to wait six months before sending it, but jeff accidentally mails it out with the bills. catherine's negative response ends up in marcy's hands before austin has seen it, and she takes him to a chinese restaurant that offers free wine, in order to get him drunk enough to break the news to him. a series of humorous conflicts with the waiter at the restaurant result in austin and marcy skipping out on their bill and stealing a box of wine from the restaurant. austin is impressed with himself for standing up for marcy, and thanks her for his acting out of character ("because of you"). when they are about to kiss, marcy stops him and shows him the letter from catherine. he grows angry, and they have a heated argument, but end up having sex. meanwhile, jeff and diana articulate the nature of their "friends with benefits" relationship ("we're just friends"). the next day, austin is ecstatic over his night with marcy, and has fallen in love with her, though marcy doesn't know how she feels about what happened. jeff tells austin to tell himself that he doesn't love her. austin tries, but ends up thinking their relationship might have a future ("maybe we just made love"). austin admits his feelings to marcy, who rejects him, telling him she isn't ready for true love ("just not now"). ashamed, austin goes home, and finds catherine waiting for him.
