Synopsis[]
Donny takes some time off from the pub and tries to make amends with Teri. But no matter how much he avoids Martha, he can't escape her for long.
Plot[]
After being assaulted by Martha, Donny took time off work and blocked Martha on Facebook, in hopes of getting away from Martha.
Donny went to Teri's apartment to apologise and tell Teri the truth about his identity. Teri became upset, believing Donny was using her for comedic material and kicked him out. On the way home, Donny updated his dating profile with his real name and occupation.
At Donny's place, Liz introduced Donny to her cooking group. To his surprise, the new member of Liz's cooking group is Martha, who passed herself off as "Sheila", a lawyer. Liz invited "Sheila" to spend the night. While Liz was searching for blankets, Donny confronted Martha and threatened to call the police. Martha was shocked and let Donny drive her home.
Week after week, Martha decided to spend her days and nights sitting on the bus bench outside Liz's house, greeting Donny every time he walked past. On a cold winter day, Donny noticed that she was sitting at the bus stop, seemingly frozen, and began to have some sympathy for her. He drove her home and made her a cup of tea.
Donny took part in a comedy show, where Teri and her many friends showed up, hoping to watch him fail. Donny's show started poorly, however, he cracked a few jokes about a fictional girlfriend, which made the audience laugh. Suddenly, Martha started to sing and she professed her love for him. Donny initially tried calling her a "random stranger", before telling the crowd she was his stalker. Martha angrily denied this and began yelling that Donny poked around her house at night and emailed her asking for sex. Martha was eventually taken out by security guards.
After the show, Teri offered to talk to Martha, since she was a therapist and believed she could help Martha with her mental issues. However, Donny felt that it was a bad idea, and instead, Donny and Teri went into a pub to hide from Martha. Martha found them, and was offended that Donny was having a date with someone else. Martha insulted Teri with slurs and remarks about Teri's background and appearance. When Martha physically attacked Teri, Donny and another man pulled Martha off and Donny yelled at Martha to leave. Teri sat on the ground, injured and hurt.
