Plot[]
The episode opens with Frank and Sadie enthusiastically agreeing to get divorced, and then flashes back to several hours earlier.
After fixing drinks, Frank and Sadie notice that one of their windows is open. Jason, an incubus, admits to opening the window to let himself in. Frank and Sadie both admit to liking the intruder beyond the fact that he's getting them drinks, which shocks them both.
Jason admits to the Doyles that he is an incubus. As Frank is also attracted to Jason, Jason turns down his levels of charm and attractiveness until Frank just wants to be friends (which Frank finds disappointing). Sadie then suggests Frank occupy himself with a woman who has also come through the window. Jason says the new woman, Marcy, is his fiancée. She is a succubus, and is very upset by Jason siphoning energy from the Doyles. Frank and Sadie continue to flirt with Marcy and Jason while Marcy begs Jason to leave the incubus life behind and run away with her to get married.
Allen, Jason's father, then enters and Sadie and Frank are enamoured with him, as well. Allen is there to stop Jason from throwing his life away by marrying Marcy, and therefore not feeding on the frisky energy of humans any more. Without that energy, they will both wither away and die. Allen says he will kill Marcy to keep his son from starving to death.
Sadie intervenes by having Allen agree that he loves his son more than tradition, and if Jason and Marcy could find something else on which to feed they will not starve. Sadie suggests that Jason and Marcy could feed upon food instead of energy to survive. It's disgusting to Allen, but they all agree it could work, and then leave Frank and Sadie alone.
Frank and Sadie are glad to be out from under the spells of the succubus and incubus and at the last second jokingly agree to the divorce from the beginning of the episode.
