Life would be a lot easier for the gang with a car, they all believe, and Excess suggests they all pool their money and buy one together. They aren't happy, however, when they see the wreck that their new roommate buys for them. Excess, still trying to prove himself to the rest of the gang, is hurt that they don't trust his judgment, and indeed, everyone starts to change their minds after Excess spends hours fixing the car up and making it very presentable. But then they take it for a spin with Ashley at the wheel and have an accident. Also, Lauren is dating co-worker Kevin. She's really taken with him, but Kevin is super-secretive about certain areas of his life.
