A case in which Ally and Cage defend a 39-year-old woman who had an affair with a 16 year-old boy has Ally questioning her own feelings about true love. Meanwhile, Cage explores his feelings of love and desire when he hires an attorney with the nickname "sub-zero Nelle", a woman who, he secretly confides to Ally, "makes my heart go boom".

Nelle's client, Ling Woo, is suing "shock jock" Harold Wick for his sexually explicit on-air comments. Georgia and Cage accept a case defending Paul's Bistro after two customers sue because they were served horse. Ally finds herself commiserating with Cage on the issue of horses' rights and she ends up a guest on the scandalous "Harold Wick Show".

Ling is back and suing a nurse who let a plastic surgeon show off her breasts under the pretense that they were implants. Impressed, Ling paid for implants for her sister, with disastrous results. While Billy takes part in a breast comparison, Fish's minister arrives frantic for help in dealing with the choir director with whom he just ended a relationship - a case that leads Ally to a startling realization.

While defending an editor of La Femme magazine, Ally is told to stop wearing miniskirts in court. She refuses, is held in contempt of court, and taken into custody. With the whole law firm rallying behind her, Ally is finally set free only to face an even greater disaster - an all-out argument over women's rights and male chauvinism at her carefullly planned dinner party.

Cage brings his frog, Stefan, into the office to train him for an important competition. Ally has her hands full with "boyfriend problems". First Ally has to defend a woman who claims a case of acute courtesy disorder made her assault her best friend for stealing her boyfriend; then she has to tactfully fend of Elaine's boyfriend, George.

A young nun is surprised she's being forced to leave her order after breaking her vows of celibacy, for which she confessed and was granted absolution. While in the unisex, Georgia gets and even bigger surprise when Stefan appears in the toilet bowl in her stall. But Ling gets the biggest surprise when Ally's encouraging words to Whipper backfire in the worst possible way.

As Ally tries to elude her latest bad date, Ross "Fitzy" Fitzsimmons, Cage and Fish are together in a bathroom stall agonizing over the pressure of the dreaded "first kiss". Matters only worsen when Fish, Ling, Cage and Nelle unknowingly eat Stefan and Judge Happy Boyle suddenly dies after checking yet another defendant's teeth.

Nelle, Ally and Georgia defend Ling when a group called MOPE, Mother's Opposed to Pornographic Entertainment, try to close down her mud wrestling club. When the opposing cousel in Ling's case turns out to be Ray, an old law school friend of Georgia's, Ally gets talked into going out on a date. But it's all too obvious to Ally who's really interested in Ray.

Georgia represents Ling in a sexual harassment suit against a male employee she claims ogles her body and has sexual thoughts about her. Meanwhile, as Ally struggles through a blind date at a local bowling alley, a nervous Cage is asked out on a first date by Nelle.

Crises abound as everyone prepares for Christmas. First, Fish calls everyone into the conference room when his biggest client is fired for claiming to have seen a unicorn. Then, although Matt says he and his wife are estranged, Renee finds out that his wife is four month pregnant. And Cage becomes determined to catch Nelle under the mistletoe.

Upon discovering her favorite high school teacher is terminally ill, Ally seeks a court order to allow the woman to spend her remaining days in a drug-induced coma, happily dreaming of her imaginary lover. Cage must gather his courage to confront Nelle after Fish tells him she thinks Cage hasn't had sex with her because he's gay.

Feeling ready to give love another try after a date with Dr. Greg Butters, Ally and Cage go to their therapist's office together to work through their fears regarding relationships. Unfortunately, Ally's current case, in which a husband tries to annul his nine-year marriage on the grounds he was insane when he married his wife, does little to bolster her sense of trust in men.

If the gang at Cage/Fish & Associates is surprised to discover Ling is lawyer, they're shocked when she comes out of retirement to help a young boy sue God because he's dying of leukemia. Meanwhile, Fish and Cage represent a man who tried tohug his wife and her lover after catching them in bed.

From a case where a couple sues their company after firing them because they were dating, to a wife losing her dead's husband's estate because she remarried, to a stolen kiss between Ally and Billy - love can sure complicate things. Too bad Fish doesn't realize this when he hires Ling.

Ally's world spins out of control as she tries to figure out exactly what the kiss with Billy means, and how it affects her relationship with Greg. She finally convinces Billy to accompany her to a session with Dr. Tracy, but that only confuses Ally more.

Cage and Ling take on a case against a U.S. Senator whose election campaign commercials falsely accused a local bookstore of selling pornography, causing the owner to lose her business. For Ally, "the kiss" has taken on epic proportions as she begins to imagine everyone knows about it - prompting her to call Dr. Ruth for advice.

It's Ally and Cage vs. Fish and Georgia as the firm argues both sides in a date rape case. And although Georgia and Ally have agreed to act civilized in the office about "the kiss", a shoving match between them turns into a free-for-all with Nelle and Ling joining in - and Elaine videotaping.

As Ally and Cage prepare to celebrate their birthdays, they lament the fact that they've never experienced the kind of deep love that their client, Albert Shepley, felt for his deceased wife - a love that caused him to saw off her hand! Fish isn't lamenting at all as he breaks up with Ling because they're not having sex.

When Elaine's dance partner gets injured right before a dance competition, Ling offers to take his place. Cage, Nelle and Fish lose a case where a woman felt discriminated against after she came back from maternity leave. For Ally it's back to therapy, this time with Dr. Hooper, Billy and Georgia - a bad move that results in cries of "homewrecker" and a broken toe.

After Elaine's face bra infomercial airs, her Aunt Gladys accuses her of stealing the idea from her daughter, Martha. Now that CAge has turned thirty-five he decides it's time to be bold, so he asks Nelle out on a date. He tells a sulking Ally to do the same and "make something happen". But when Ally goes to see Greg, she gets and unexpected surprise.

Jealousy runs rampant, with revenge one step behind. First, Ally hires an attractive man from Ling's escort service to make Greg jealous. Then Georgia stars wearing sexy dresses to the office, making Billy nervous and upset. And Cage and Fish defend a jealous wife after she dropped her cheating husband's grand piano on top of his antique Porsche.

Ally worries if anyone can truly find their perfect mate while working on a case where a man sues his wife for fraud after finding eleven years worth of love letters she wrote to a fantasy lover. Fish proves to Ling, and himself, that he's a "love machine", while Billy and Georgia struggle to put a little spice back in their sex life.

Distraught that she may never find the perfect man, Ally retreats into a fantasy world. When Fish stops by her apartment and tells her to "stop waiting for men", Ally and Renee decide they need to become dating machines. When that doesn't work, Ally turns to Cage - much to the dismay of a suddenly insecure Nelle.
