Can great sex exist with someone you don't love? Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) is forced to pose this question to herself when she experiences an earth-shattering orgasm with jazz musician Ray (Craig Bierko); despite their connection between the sheets, they don't have much to talk about outside of bed. Samantha (Kim Cattrall) surprises everyone when she announces that she has made a profound connection with Maria (Sonia Braga), who, Samantha proudly reports, has taught her about the joys of a "real relationship." A skeptical Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) makes her own announcement: completely fed up with bad dates, she has decided to go on strike, substituting chocolate for sex. Charlotte (Kristin Davis), meanwhile, wants the full monty -- sex and a relationship -- with Trey (Kyle MacLachlan), who has infuriated her by becoming obsessed with his "John Thomas."
