She has divorced from Susan's ex-fiancée Kip's best friend Scott, having been inspired by Susan leaving Kip at the altar. Susan decides to support her. Vicki thinks Paula does need any support. Todd claims that one cannot abandon one's friends. Vicki guesses correctly that Todd is talking about his "dweeb" friend Jerry, who is 26 and lives at home. Susan points out that one cannot compare Paula to Jerry and that it is not like Susan is to become the center of Paula's universe. Dwight points out that he had a similar illusion of a certain person. Todd visits Jerry and tells him to look at his life: Jerry has not moved on from childhood hobbies. So Todd decides to try to get Jerry live a little in the real world. Paula comes to see Susan at work and presents her resume - one which is not that impressive. She needs Susan's help to make it more impressive. Turns out that Paula has no one else but Susan in her life. When she becomes Susan's neighbor, Susan realizes that Paula is consuming her life.
