Plot[]

J.D. is torn between two egg donors and wants to meet them in person, but the fertility clinic says that information is confidential. J.D. then conspires with Katie and Tami to break into the clinic at night and steal the women's addresses. Meanwhile, Taylor gets in trouble with her ne'er-do-well friends, the Joshes, and is arrested. Greg tries to make a deal with the local newspaper publisher's son to keep Taylor out of the police blotter, worried that it might harm his election campaign. He is successful, only to have Katie get arrested at the fertility clinic and end up in the blotter. Also, Cooper becomes depressed over the thought that, without money, he has nothing to contribute to Oliver's business or family. That changes after he makes a gourmet lunch for Oliver, Anna-Kat and Franklin.
