The night after the announcement, John, overwhelmed by emotion and alcohol, finds himself in a compromising situation. He embarrassingly urinates in the bushes at a party, marking a low point in his struggle with depression.

While at the party, John meets Molly, who strikes up a conversation with him. This chance encounter leads to a night of passion, but Molly leaves promptly after their intimate encounter, leaving John feeling more confused.

Molly returns to John's place for dinner, rekindling their connection once again. After another night of intimacy, the relationship appears promising, yet Molly's sudden departure adds to John's uncertainty.

John, curious about Molly's life, follows her home and encounters her son, Cyrus. The meeting is awkward as John senses the strong bond between Molly and Cyrus, leaving him anxious about their dynamic.

John experiences escalating anxiety over the missing shoes he left at Molly's house. He becomes increasingly paranoid, suspecting that Cyrus might be playing mind games with him.

In an attempt to find reassurance, John convinces Jamie to meet Molly and Cyrus. While Jamie finds Cyrus to be sweet, she feels uncomfortable with the close relationship he shares with his mother.

Just as John and Molly are about to deepen their relationship, they are interrupted by Cyrus's screams. Molly rushes to comfort Cyrus, leaving John feeling lonely and sidelined once again.

John attempts to express his feelings towards Molly, but Cyrus interrupts under the guise of a night terror. This manipulation leaves John questioning his place in Molly's life.

Cyrus tells Molly that John thinks she is too pushy, leading to a significant argument. This conflict deeply affects Molly, complicating her relationship with John.

After much contemplation, Cyrus decides he can no longer live with his mother and moves out. This decision brings John hope for a potential future with Molly, as the dynamic begins to shift.

John and Molly's romance is once again interrupted when Cyrus fabricates a panic attack. This tactic frustrates John and raises his suspicions about Cyrus's true intentions.

In a heated conversation, John confronts Cyrus about his manipulation. This confrontation leads to the revelation of Cyrus's deliberate attempts to sabotage John's relationship with Molly.

At Jamie's wedding, tension erupts as Cyrus accuses John of trying to steal his mother away. The situation escalates into chaos, drawing the attention of others and forcing John to deny the allegations.

After reflecting on his tumultuous relationship with Molly and the constant interference from Cyrus, John chooses to end things. He decides to distance himself, fearing that Cyrus will always be an insurmountable obstacle.
