- Charlotte panics about her 'bed-manner' when her lover Dr. Bram Walker dozes off in bed once after a grueling day of surgery, so she takes a tantric sex class given in a very hands-on demonstration by a psychologist couple. Sam not only proclaims the dawn of pan-sexuality, but actually agrees to have a threesome with gay couple David and David, who lose interest in the idea just when she was running hot. Carrie bumps into (the cigarette of) very cute film composer Patrick Casey. She is puzzled how reluctantly he takes further steps until he confesses to be a recovering alcoholic, but when she is the one hitting the breaks...—KGF Vissers
- Carrie dates a recovering alcoholic Patrick Casey (Richard Joseph Paul) who becomes obsessed with her. Carrie meets him when he throws a cigarette butt in her direction, mindlessly, after smoking it, and it ends up hitting Carrie on the arm, stinging her. Carrie ends up having coffee and ends up giving him her number. But Patrick doesn't call for 3 days.
Carrie runs into him again and Patrick admits that he is a recovering alcoholic and is not looking for anything super serious. According to his program, he should not be hooking up for at least a year, and it has only been 11 months. But they end up going on couple of dates, but despite Carrie's best moves, Patrick won't kiss her. On the 3rd date, Patrick admits that he has never had sex sober. Patrick has sex with Carrie and is head over heels amazed with the whole idea of sex without being drunk. Soon, Carrie realizes that now Patrick is addicted to her. He has replaced his alcohol with Carrie.
Patrick says I love you to Carrie, 10 days in their relationship. Carrie cuts off sex for Patrick as she thinks he is addicted. Patrick gets drunk and its over when he comes outside her apartment and starts yelling and gets naked.
Charlotte is determined to learn how to have good sex after her latest partner Dr Bram Walker (Kevin J. Flynn) falls asleep on her. Charlotte is distraught that she has become so boring that men are falling asleep on top of her. She drags the girls to a Tantric sex class on "How to please a man".
Samantha gets an offer to have a threesome with two curious gay friends David Shoffer (Sean Martin Hingston) & David Tevis (Brad Hurtado). Samantha is all excited as the gay duo are very fit and attractive. The night starts good as the guys start with her nipples. But they get scared as they get to her vagina and back off. Samantha thinks it's her.
Miranda gets new sheets to change her bed karma. She believes that if she wants to be in her own bed, then others would also like to join her.
Samantha now willingly goes to Charlotte's class. There an oldish lady shows various Tantric sex techniques (like the Lingham Massage) by performing them on her equally old hubby (Ronny Shapiro (Bernard Wagner)). The husband ejaculates and the sperm fall on Miranda's face. Charlotte learns something from the class and Dr Bram is beyond crazy with sexual excitement.
In 2007, the episode was in the news for being part of research conducted by Ellie Parker and Adrian Furnham of the Department of Psychology at University College London. In a study released online in advance of its publication in Applied Cognitive Psychology, Parker and Furnham investigated an audience's ability to recall advertisements under varying circumstances. In comparing advertisements placed in "Was It Good for You?" vs. those placed in an episode of Malcolm in the Middle, the researchers discovered that "programs heavy on sexual content actually lead to less recall of ads that appear in commercial breaks" and that sex was only an effective tool for selling to men.
