Written by D.B. Brooks, Anthony L. Greene and Amanda Olsen and directed by Julie Jordan, this episode’s main guest star is Chelsea Chandler (not the MMA fighter) as Renee, a former fashion model. She became a professional model at age 16 and was very successful for years, but then says that her agent dropped her when she turned 30. Since then, she’s been insecure about her looks and is desperate to find a man who loves her for who she is inside, not for her physical appearance.
So Olivia (Amy Lindsay) and Cooper (Tiffany Hendra) set Renee up with David, a professional sculptor, played by Philippe Til, who happens to be blind. The ladies didn’t tell Renee that in advance, so she’s quite surprised to discover this when she arrives at his studio to meet him. But after a bunch of talking and Renee agreeing to let David sculpt her (he feels her face to imagine what she looks like), the two of them end up banging on the floor of his studio, making this another successful matchmaking job for the Black Tie Nights agency.
Now for the subplots regarding our main characters, the episode begins with Cooper and Ryan (Glen Meadows) waking up in Ryan’s apartment, which they’d gone to at the end of the previous episode, to finally have sex. Ryan’s clearly ready to go public WITH their new relationship, but Cooper still doesn’t want to tell Olivia and insists that the two of them remain professional at work. But the truth comes out in the end, not that Olivia wasn’t already aware of this. This is a good move for these characters, the will they/won’t they secrecy was getting a bit stale, in my opinion.
Also getting stale was Olivia’s refusal to date due to being hung up on her late husband. Well, in this episode, she takes up a yoga class, where she meets a fellow new student named Charley (Drake Dorado). He’s a chiropractor, and the two of them hit it off. He asks her on a date, and she hesitatingly agrees. She invites him to her place to make him dinner, but when she gets there, she tries to back out, saying she’s not ready for this. He acts okay with this, saying they can just hang out as friends, and then offers to give her a friendly massage.
If you’re familiar with softcore shows, you know what massages usually lead to…
I swear, based on this show’s history, when Olivia and Charley start having sex, I kept imagining that he would suddenly turn into her Late husband and this would all turn out to be another fantasy sequence that she was having, but happily that didn’t happen, this was “real.”
So, yeah, Olivia has finally gotten laid by someone new and seems happy about it as the episode ends. Cooper is also surprised but happy for her.
We get three full sex scenes, the one between Olivia and Charley and the one between Renee and David, but also a flashback scene between Renee and her former agent, who is played by softcore veteran Danny Pape. We also get some brief interaction between Cooper and Ryan, but it’s not a full sex scene. I was particularly impressed by Chelsea Chandler’s scene; she was very sexy and good, but, unfortunately, she had a very brief acting career, with her only other softcore role being in an episode of Hotel Erotica Cabo. Still, the scene we got, along with the progression of the regular characters, makes this one of the series’ better episodes.

When it comes to romance with sex, this episode stands out with all 3 scenes imo
I think all the guest stars have been on screen after this in one way or another. Darako I’m sure I saw him in a commercial looking older, Philipe Til comes up online in fitness & real estate, and Chelsea not the host or fighter is a weather personality now. One best eps
