In Cougar Town's 10th episode of season 1, titled "Mystery Man," Jules (played by Courteney Cox) is excited to meet her new boyfriend, only known as "Jeff." However, she quickly becomes obsessed with figuring out his true identity after he refuses to divulge any personal information about himself. Her curiosity only intensifies when she discovers a shady past that "Jeff" seems to be hiding.
Meanwhile, Grayson (played by Josh Hopkins) attempts to help Laurie (played by Busy Philipps) overcome her fear of the outdoors by taking her on a camping trip. However, things don't go according to plan as Laurie struggles to adjust to roughing it and Grayson's attempts to help her go awry.
Back in town, Bobby (played by Brian Van Holt) tries to teach Jules' son Travis (played by Dan Byrd) how to be macho and tough after he is bullied at school. However, Bobby's tactics prove to be more harmful than helpful when Travis takes things too far.
As the episode progresses, Jules must come to terms with her obsession with "Jeff" and decide whether or not she can trust him, while Grayson and Laurie's camping trip takes a surprising turn. Bobby and Travis' storyline provides comic relief and highlights the challenges of raising a teenager in today's world.
Overall, "Mystery Man" is a fun and lighthearted episode that continues to explore the relationships and dynamics between the show's ensemble cast. With its blend of comedic moments and heartfelt revelations, it's a must-watch for Cougar Town fans.
