2. Who's Your Mama?

While at the bar immediately following the events of the pilot, Joy is picked up by a younger man ( David Giuntoli ), Elka gains the phone numbers of three elderly suitors, and the next morning Melanie happily begins extending her lease to the house for a permanent move to Cleveland. When Joy's date makes reference to her birth country and his birth date, she realizes he could possibly be the son she put up for adoption when she was a teenager. During their second date, she "accidentally" elbows him in the nose and collects his blood in a napkin for a DNA test, though he soon after reveals that he had already found his biological mother ten years previously.

This prompts Joy to start thinking about finding her own long-lost son. Elka is unsure of which of her three men to date, and Melanie tries to help her decide. Her first choice, Larry, ends up dead before she could call him, so she hesitantly goes out on a date with her second choice, Sal ( Jack Donner ), on a double date with Melanie and Sal's friend, who keeps inappropriately hitting on Melanie. Meanwhile, on Elka's suggestion, Victoria starts shopping at the local Big N Easy, and brings home several items in bulk on a daily basis. When Melanie and Joy stage an intervention, they find out that she also wanted a place to vent about her TV show's cancellation.
