Community: Season 1, Episode 14

1 - 14:

The group finds out that, in contrast to his usual method of operation, Jeff has abandoned one night stands and is having a low key relationship with one woman. With their interest piqued, Jeff refuses to tell them that it is Professor Slater, his statistics teacher from last semester. They must keep their relationship a secret since students and teachers are not allowed to date, and they could both be expelled and fired, respectively. Also keeping a secret is Troy who, in contrast to his status as manly football player, has been taking and exceeding in very graceful dance lessons. While there, he runs into Britta, also attending in secrecy. They decide that they are tired of living double lives, and agree to come clean and invite people to their dance recital that Friday. Jeff and Slater soon get caught making out by the group, so the group swears to keep silent about it. After Slater leaves, Britta comes forth with her news that she is a dancer, and invites the group to the recital. Troy, however, chickens out of telling the truth, and tells Britta he is dropping out of the recital, not wanting to be considered feminine. Dean Pelton immediately gets wind of Jeff and Professor Slater's relationship and asks to see them both in his office. He states that there is paperwork they must fill out, and as they do, find that they have conflicting views on their affair. Jeff views it as simply a friendship with intercourse, while Slater felt offended that Jeff thought of their trysts as "friendly". They both agree that they will start and official relationship with each other, complete with filling out the paperwork required by the college. That night, Britta learns of their development as a couple, and swears that she does not care one way or the other. However, near the end of her performance, she catches sight of them holding hands in the audience and suddenly becomes traumatized; dancing in a trance but stuck in one place. Troy sees this and, understanding that it is the most masculine choice for him to help her out, helps her finish a more contemporary dance routine, to the delight of the entire audience. Afterward, Britta congratulates Jeff on taking a serious step in romance, while Troy is finally happy that he no longer has to keep this branch of his life a secret.
