[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

In the morning Sarah has a handsome workman Jon Hamm install television cable. Flirtingly, he says he will put in free movie channels for a kiss. Sarah appears grossed out as the workman kisses her on the check and he gives up and just gives her the free channels. Then, she goes to brunch. Brian and Steve get their drinks, and Brian notices he has a TaB, which Brian has never tried before. Steve, urges him to try something new. Brian tries it and pretends to be estatic over the taste. Jay mentions a female partner "Tig". Laura asks if she should be jealous. Jay, responds that Tig is a "Dyke" . Tig arrives to brunch announces she is a Lesbian and Sarah begins to make politically incorrect jokes such as when Tig leaves Sarah waves and says "Les keep in touch." Sarah, watching T.V. realizes she has a crush on Tig and must be a lesbian. Sarah, then goes to the police office to tell Tig she is a lesbian. Tig and her sister Laura do not believe she is a Lesbian. Sarah then asks Laura for some "lesbian looking clothes" to put on for her night at the bar. She goes to a night bar, and creates a lesbian oriented song about Tig. Meanwhile, Brian and Steve have passive aggressive fights over which of them loves the exquiste taste of the newfound nectar TaB the most and try to out do the other with NASCAR TaB jumpsuits, Tab T-Shirts and constant talk of TaB. Steve has the car painted in coral pink with the TaB logo painted on. Then, Steve, in a Tab can costume, say they can go out for a week and go to the original TAB bottling plant in Tennesee. Brian with sarcasm says he likes the idea, and says they should move to Tennesse and work there. Eventually the two stop the foolish out of control fight and make up over a cup of tea. After Sarah preforms a lesbian guitar solo at open mic she meets Tig's girlfriend, who appears to be a femme lesbian. Sarah creates a scene and goes home where she is miserable. Tig rings the door bell and makes a heartfelt plea for a real relationship with Sarah. The two kiss and Sarah is grossed out. Tig leaves and tells her to have fun alone in life. Sarah chases after Tig and seemingly starts to appologize before telling Tig to enjoy her life alone!
