Rob Gordon is a music enthusiast who is despondent after being abruptly dumped by Laura, his live-in girlfriend of two years.

After Rob's mother calls him out on his doomed relationships, he decides on a journey to understand his relationship failures by reconnecting with his former partners on the Top 5 list.

He meets with her over a movie and dinner, only to discover that the sexual encounter was borderline non-consensual; Penny points out that he rejected her; not the other way around.
