In the first-season finale, Jessa brings everyone together for a "mystery party," but other surprises are in store when Hannah misjudges Adam's commitment; Marnie tries her free-spirited side on for size; and Shoshanna's quirkiness impresses a suitor.

Hannah's resentment of an old rival's literary success leads her to grudgingly accept an invitation to a reading hosted by her former professor, a pair of setbacks about which she could usually complain to Marnie—until now. Meanwhile, Jessa gets a surprise visit from her former boss; and Shoshanna schedules a date with someone she met online.

Marnie and Jessa bond and meet an eligible bachelor who's new in town; Hannah gets to know Adam in ways she could not have imagined.

At a raging party in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, Hannah sees a different side of Adam; Jessa lures the sender of an anonymous text message; Marnie finds out what Charlie's been up to for the past two weeks; and Shoshanna gets a hand from Ray when she needs it most.

Hannah visits her parents in Michigan for their 30th anniversary, and winds up going on a date to a fund-raiser for a local family who suffered a tragic loss.

Hannah tries a different tack with her boss to counter his inappropriate office behavior—she propositions him. Meanwhile, Marnie does some soul-searching about her relationship with Charlie; and Jessa wants the last word with an ex.

Adam's risqué text message sends Hannah over the edge; Jessa gets distracted while babysitting; Shoshanna reunites with a guy she knew at camp; Ray and Charlie stick their noses where they don't belong.

Hannah contacts her college boyfriend to find out how she contracted an STD, but learns perhaps even more shocking news from him. Meanwhile, Marnie is smitten with a pretentious artist at a gallery opening; and Jessa lands a babysitting job.

An appointment at a women's clinic doesn't go according to Marnie's detailed plans, mostly because Jessa will find any reason not to show up. Meanwhile, Hannah is preoccupied by an STD scare; and Shoshanna makes a startling revelation.

In the premiere of this comedy about twentysomething women navigating their way through life in New York, Hannah swings and misses at two curves when her parents rescind their financial support and she loses her unpaid internship. Meanwhile, Hannah's roommate, Marnie, throws a dinner party for their nomadic friend Jessa, who's returned from yet another journey.
