No longer is the folk duo to be alone in this great episode, “Girlfriends.” And who’d have thought it would have started because Jemaine needed a wingman in his pursuit of a croissant? Anyway, the two walk into a bakery, see two lovely ladies, and start imagining in French….and technicolor….and 60s Laugh-In camp-ish style. Awesome.

Bret and Jemaine decide to take them on a date, and Jemaine decides to switch girls, while Bret does well with both. Jemaine just can’t catch a break, can he? Once Bret switches, he starts to really hit it off with his new girl, but then she starts pressuring him to do things that he doesn’t wanna do. (You know what I’m talking about…) This is when we find out Bret is a virgin! Woahhhhzors! She finally gets him to do the deed by telling him that she’s shipping out to Iraq the next day, but after it’s all said and done, he sees her in the bakery the very next morning. Owch.

It was a hard lesson to learn, but at least Bret ends the episode a wiser and more aged man. Jemaine, on the other hand, doesn’t get any, although he remains the big-talker we know and love.

Songs featured in this episode: “Foux De Fa Fa” (which I spell different every time, sorry) and “A Kiss Is Not A Contract.”
