Meanwhile, Dana is invited to a Subaru dinner party that wants to sponsor her tennis career. But she ends up hurting Lara when Dana takes Harrison, her (male) doubles tennis partner instead. Bette and Tina have dinner with Bette's conservative father where they announce Tina's pregnancy. But Melvin Porter's negative reaction dismays both of them.
