The one where uninspired chef Dean Winchester has a one night stand with the male (!) food critic who described the flavour of his garlic bread as 'closeted' and accidentally ends up dating him to try and prove that he's a kick ass chef, thank you very much. (He may have a point about the 'closeted' thing).

Dean Winchester's life as an English professor is fairly uncomplicated. His nights are spent watching reruns of Doctor Sexy and having the occasional one night stand--two things that nobody can make him feel badly about, not even Sam. When a certain blue-eyed author in an ill-fitting trench coat is assigned to work with his class, Dean suddenly finds himself accidentally dating a stripper, becoming attached to a guinea pig, discovering that Sam is a fangirl, drunk texting his crush in the middle of the night and maybe, just maybe learning that the messy things in life are worth fighting for.
