Plot summary

Jodi tells Bonnie and Christy she is dating a fellow addict who is only six weeks clean, which worries the women. Marjorie announces she will marry Victor ( Jonny Coyne ), and that the wedding is in a week because they want it done before they go on vacation together. The girls, including Jodi, hold a bachelorette party for Marjorie, where they try to get Victor's sister Anya ( Rhea Perlman ) to like her. Jodi does not show up for the wedding ceremony, and Christy later gets a call from the police telling her that Jodi has died from a drug overdose, leaving her and the other friends shocked and in tears. Note: due its themes at the end a public service announcement featuring Faris, Janney and a doctor talking about drug overdosing aired after the episode first aired.
