She gets mad and asks the gang to find him someone to date.

Delia brings up the therapist in her office, in hopes that Wade would want to talk to him. Meanwhile, Michelle tells Ben that she was looking through his books and wants him to cut expenses.

The next day Delia talks to the therapist (Kevin Berntson) about Wade. He tells her to call him, but Delia says he won’t. She asks him if he will find a way to do it and he accuses her of being a control freak…leading to him listening to her talk about her past.

Wade and Ben are working when their boss Trey (Rob Riggle) comes up to them and asks if they want to make some extra money. They both say yes, so he tells them about working on a new golf course.  They agree to help and Trey leaves to go meet his fiancé for lunch.

Ben wants to celebrate, but Wade isn’t so sure. Ben reminds him that Shannon moved on, so Wade agrees to go out, get drunk and hit on women.
