In season 1 episode 2 of Men Behaving Badly, titled "The Bet," we see the continuation of the crazy antics of Gary and Tony, two bachelor roommates who are not quite ready to grow up just yet.
The episode begins with Gary and Tony watching a soccer game on television when they notice their attractive neighbor Dorothy sunbathing outside. Tony makes a bet with Gary that he can get her to go out on a date with him, but Gary is skeptical. Tony is determined to win the bet, even if it means lying to Dorothy about having a rare illness.
Meanwhile, their other neighbor, Deborah, who has a crush on Gary, tries to get his attention by inviting him over for dinner. However, Gary's mind is solely on Tony's bet and he avoids Deborah's advances.
As the night progresses, Tony's lies become more and more outlandish to convince Dorothy to go out with him. However, his plan ultimately backfires when Dorothy finds out the truth and is disgusted by his deceitfulness.
In the end, both Gary and Tony learn valuable lessons about honesty and the importance of treating women with respect. Deborah, on the other hand, decides to move on from her infatuation with Gary and seeks out other romantic prospects.
Overall, the episode is a humorous yet cautionary tale about the consequences of behaving badly and the importance of maturity in relationships.
