Ep 3. Lover's Touch

In the third episode of Cougar Town's third season titled "Lover's Touch," the show's cast of zany characters continues to explore the intricacies of love and friendship.

The episode kicks off with Jules (played by Courteney Cox) worrying about her relationship with Grayson (Josh Hopkins). After they spend the night cuddling, Jules starts to feel insecure about how serious Grayson is about their relationship. She confides in her best friend Ellie (Christa Miller), who tries to reassure her that everything is fine. However, Jules' worries only escalate when she sees Grayson talking to another woman at the bar.

Meanwhile, Laurie (Busy Philipps) is excited to spend the weekend with Smith (Ryan Devlin). However, things quickly go awry when Smith accidentally elbows her in the face and gives her a black eye. Initially, Laurie tries to cover up the injury, but her efforts are in vain when the entire group notices her shiner. Everyone tries to be supportive, but Andy (Ian Gomez) can't stop making jokes about the situation.

Bobby (Brian Van Holt) and Travis (Dan Byrd) are also struggling with their own love woes. Bobby is trying to learn more about his girlfriend Angie (Sarah Chalke), but she is hesitant to open up to him. Travis, on the other hand, is trying to move on from his ex-girlfriend Kylie (Maria Thayer). He meets a new girl named Kirsten (Collette Wolfe) and tries to impress her by showing off his cooking skills.

As the group deals with their various romantic entanglements, they all end up at a public pool. Jules tries to show off her diving skills to impress Grayson, but things don't go as planned. Her dive results in an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction, and she ends up baring it all to everyone at the pool. After the incident, Jules decides to confront Grayson and ask him about their relationship.
