Rules of Engagement (season 2)

Jeff's snoring has worsened, frequently disturbing Audrey's sleep. She wants him to have surgery to prevent his snoring. They decide that they should sleep in separate bedrooms, which Jeff prefers. He takes advantage of his new-found freedom by staying up late and living like a college student.

Audrey's sister, Barbara (Heather Locklear), is having problems with her husband Rick and visits Audrey and Jeff. Russell and Barbara go out to a restaurant, play Guitar Hero and she kisses him. Russell tells Jeff that he intends to have sex with her after she splits from Rick.

Audrey is upset that a woman (Jill Getto Lee) who lives in their building never talks to her, so Jeff asks her to say hello to Audrey. She reluctantly does so and makes it clear to Audrey that he asked her to. Audrey is annoyed with Jeff for asking the woman.

Russell is disappointed to find that the girl he's been texting (Jennifer Alden) doesn't just find him funny, but laughs at anything anyone says.

Audrey and Jeff have become friends with a married couple, Ray (Tim Conlon) and Katie (Bess Meyer). Ray tells Katie and Audrey that he and Jeff are going to a sports bar. However, they actually go to a strip club, where Ray pays a stripper to give him a handjob. When Jeff tells Audrey about it, she is appalled. Jeff then informs her about "guy code", which involves men keeping things about each other secret and not judging each other. When Ray breaks guy code by informing Audrey that he has broken the diet that she imposed on him, he considers Ray to have betrayed him, so Jeff ends the friendship.

After hearing that Audrey's sex stories told to her gal-pals pale in comparison to those of her friends, Jeff tries to be more spontaneous.

Russell is dating a new girl, Claire (Katie Walder), who turns out to be homeless.

Jeff has a rare opportunity to have a night with the guys rather than go to a wedding. Audrey and Jen do go to the wedding, where a little boy (Zach Mills) tries to get them both naked.

Audrey and Jen decide to do some matchmaking, setting up their friends Jack (Erik Van Wyck) and Sheila (Meg Wolf), yet the effects hit closer to home when Adam and Jeff get involved. Russell runs into a woman (Carrie Southworth) in Adam and Jeff's building and decides he is in love with her. He spends a lot of time hanging around the building trying to run into her again.

When Adam's free-spirited mother Faye (Peggy Lipton) comes for a visit, Jen is in for the surprise of her life. She learns things about her soon to be mother-in-law that concern her. Meanwhile, Russell sees Faye as a mother-figure.

Jeff and Audrey must find other ways to entertain themselves when the satellite dish goes out and they have nothing to watch on TV.

Adam and Jen agree to go away with Jeff and Audrey, even though they must sit through a timeshare sales pitch in order to get a deal on the trip. The weekend takes a turn, however, when Adam and Jen learn the real reason they were invited. To the amusement of the gang, Russell is to be included in an article featuring New York's hottest bachelor's under 40 years old. Russell eventually admits to the writer (Carla Toutz) that he is actually 42.

Adam and Jen realize that living together and working together do not always mix when he hires her to freelance for his company. Meanwhile, Jeff discovers his virility has increased after Jen gives Audrey and him a fertility idol. Timmy sabatoges Russell's date with Crystal (Marisa Petroro) by impersonating Russell over the phone.

With his life insurance physical exam only a few days away, Jeff struggles to lose weight to be eligible for the "optimal male" category of fitness. Russell tries to impress a woman (Josie Davis) at a charity.

Adam is concerned that Russell will be upset when he finds out his father (Geoff Pierson) had Adam pose as his son in a promotional video he is shooting for his company.

When Adam and Jen consider buying an apartment in the building they all live in, Jeff and Audrey offer to recommend them to the co-op board. However, before they get the chance, Jeff makes a bad impression on the president of the board.
