But it's complicated.

Zoey is so embarrassed about being single that she hires a very handsome man to pose as her suave doctor boyfriend.

Chase is put off, even though he has a pretty date of his own by his side.

But then Zoey and Chase get close once again as she reveals to him that she is not sure where her life is headed.

'When did life get so messy? I would kill to go back to PCA,' Zoey says, clearly suffering from angst. Chase replies, 'I'm sure we'd all love to go back.'

She also seems lost and is missing her teen years.

'I just think about all the things I dreamed about in high school and now, I'm here. And it's like, Is this it? Is this the dream?' she muses.
