Jack & Jill - Season 1 (1999)

When Audrey replies to Jack's detailed 7 months-plan after her break-up with Danny it takes a fling to lose her 'last date virginity', Jack calls whistling construction workers' bluff to public acclaim. After two years steady with Elisa, Jill wants to dive in bachelor dating again; Mikey points out his black book is almost as lame as Barto's, so they plan a party and invite Elisa, expecting her to decline, Jack and Audrey. On Saturday the apartment fills easily, including Elisa, but conversations range from uneasy to awkward or even threats. While Mikey worries ...

In the gents, his legendary big boss Stanley Ashton tells Jill to come see him about his promising design the next day; one toy pleases enough to be suggested for development and promise him a promotion; alas Ashton dies from a heart-attack before the board meeting, Jill morns the man and the prospects. Audrey says she has broken up with director Travis Cutler, but he can get her a very desirable theater part, so to Jack's disgust she stays with him. Jack is assigned health code violations in New York restaurants, so she goes undercover as dishwasher in Chateau Noir, ...

In the library, Jill bumps into Laurie Tindell, the dream girl he never really knew in high school, and immediately gets a date. Audrey panics when the director decides she must sing a solo, while she can't even read from a music sheet, gets faked support from Jack and blows it completely, unable to utter a syllable; by comparison with a failed exam of his, her silent admirer Barto encourages her to hang on, and it works. After an outburst from Elisa, Jack goes to Jill, but finds him in underwear with his date; only after Eliza saw him with Jack too, Laurie tells him ...

Jill gets a visit from his kid sister Abby, who he will prep for an NYU dean's interview; her first question is whether big bro and Jack have sex. She misses the interview because getting facial piercings took too long, and runs off to a dance party with Mikey, who thinks David is the one out of line when he rages in as a bull to pull Abby out of the club, and hears the ingrate doesn't want to go to college, even blames him for 'forgetting' his junior siblings after he spend nearly all his time for years being their substitute father. Eliza was asking a superior out, ...

Barto wakes up at 5.36 AM, to find Jill climbing back in trough the window, proclaiming a glorious day ahead; Jack receives him wearing a beauty mask. Barto's professor tells him he'll be lucky to succeed his father as obstetrician rather then becoming a thorax-specialist as he hopes, given his falling grades, and advises him to dump whichever girl he's seeing as naked as his practice cadaver, once graduated he can get women regardless of his physique. Barto studies till he screams at his skeleton, but still feels he'll fail; Jill tells him just to talk things trough ...

When Jill becomes the next victim of colleague Stan, who takes credit for his brilliant technical idea, Mikey suggests using the boxing ring the At-bar just installed for 'office fighting'. Jill asks 'dumped' Jack if Matt is a good kisser. Matt asks Jack out, she agrees: to Audrey's preview Friday-night. The others are there too; Barto's repeated apologies are accepted with a smile now Travis is history. Elisa is struck on the street by a glance exchanged with hunky Jonathon Appel whom she doesn't now yet. Matt and Jack kiss. In the morning, Barto finds Audrey ...

Mikey feels ready for a pseudo-girlfriend: more then a one-night-stand, but not told she's not (yet?) a real one and often not exclusive- as Jack may be to Matt; now Jack worries Matt never introduces her as his girlfriend. Jill gets served a lawsuit for causing adulterous ex-high school-flame Laurie Tindell to break matrimony with Michel Preston, actually one date and one night; lawyer Gavola tells him judge Reeves should throw the case out easily, but she was dumped herself; plaintiff's lawyer Allison Hanau is hot in Jill's eyes, but turns his affirmation not even ...

In bed with Matt, Jack dreams of Jill kissing her by surprise. A loose door knob gets Jack and Jill locked up in the laundry room on Saturday evening; she panics and over-organizes, he proves practical and optimistic enough to get her laughing and even a bit spontaneous, which she tries with Matt too once they are found: cab driver Yuri may choose their destination. Elisa decides to look for her mystery man by personal ad, then reads out to Jack one which fits them, for a meeting at 9; at the last minute she hails a cab to shy away, but the driver is him: Jonathon (...

When Jill helps an ice vendor with his car alarm, he's promised his greatest wish will come true; the next day his favorite toy design Zantopia is unconditionally selected for production and marketing, soon followed by a VP-promotion; when the brass decides to adapt it violently, he quits Major Toys altogether, and Allison Hanau's inability to understand this causes a break-up. Jack's accounts were already shabby, when she drops a $1,500 baccarat piece at a sale, but won't take a loan, even from Matt, rather asks Mikey for waitress shifts, yet bugs male clients and ...

Challenged by Barto to try a steady relationship, Mikey dates clumsy ex-bar colleague Belinda to that goal, gets in her bed easily but really falls at first sight for her roommate, Lucy. Elisa and Jonathon double-date with his friends. After Jill tells Matt how Jack belongs with him, she's furious to hear about his claim on her, yet she kisses him and Jill pulls back; both boys leave her the choice. Then Matt turns down a dream-job in Washington for her; her asking Matt to move in blows Jill away, but when she tells Matt about the kiss he walks straight way; Elisa ...

Matt doesn't even wait for Jack's answer and takes the Washington job offer, so Jill's horse-carriage carries her away for hot kisses in the cold winter night, to a roof greenhouse where they make love, and hours of kissing in his place, till Mikey walks in on them doing it on the kitchen floor, shortly followed by Barto; neither minds, nor Elisa who covered for Jack arriving four hours late, but she dares not take a second to take Jill's calls, which seems to confirm love Dr. Mikey's warning that will scare her off, so he cancels that night out. Belinda commends ...

Jack drives a hard bargain on the living together-arrangements with Jill and reproaches him to have told Barto about the greenhouse, as she did to Audrey, then blurts out she knows about Barto's phobias for rubbery food and elevators, puts on PJs after naked sex and implicitly bugs unemployed Jill about useful time-use, which slowly gets to him. Shirtless boys get frisky in the morning all around. Elisa has rats fumigated, so she's invited to stay a week with Jack, without asking Jill; they find Audrey's pregnancy test kit, Barto later too and he's really upset not to...

Now the two share an apartment, Mikey invents the roommate 'forum!' to tell Elisa he didn't want her to break into his date and keeps hopping from one conquest to the next; she even meddles by telling Gaby he never goes steady, which in his explicit...

[without the beginning] Barto was grumbling in line for a chick-movie Audrey made him go see, when Samuel collapses; it's already too late for his heart-massage to save the kid's life. Mikey is a bit offended when Jonathon asks if he never 'did something' with Elisa, even recently, Elisa when he says to trust her but not womanizer Mikey with her in bathrobe.

As he starts by introducing B-star client Paris Everett at the At-bar, her lifelong fan Mikey grabs his chance to meet and charm her into a date, but startles the boys by announcing a novel technique for the quick womanizer: he won't make a second move till she's dying for him.
