Zoey's Extraordinary Double Date

**Zoey's Extraordinary Double Date** is the eleventh episode of Season Two and twenty-third episode overall of *Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist.* It aired on May 2, 2021.

## Episode Summary

Zoey attempts to throw all her energy into her relationship, but things get complicated when a double date doesn’t go as planned.

## Plot

In the therapy waiting room, Zoey witnesses the other patients singing "Overwhelmed," after which she tells her therapist, Dr. Tesoro, about the performance. Dr. Tesoro asks Zoey if there is any area of her life she can put more energy into, which prompts her to declare that she is going to be the best girlfriend ever. Zoey announces to the coders that Danny Michael Davis has chosen the Drone Phone, a design submitted by Leif, which upsets the other coders, particularly Tobin and Mackenzie. Rose suggests to Simon and Zoey that they join her and Max in running the Bay to Breakers race. While Simon seems excited by the idea, Zoey does not seem at all enthused. Meanwhile, after Zoey hears Perry sing "Unwell," she realizes he is nervous about Mo meeting his ex-husband, Brad. At the race, Zoey sees Simon, Rose, and the other race participants sing "Don't Stop Me Now" but notices that Max is not singing. When she mentions this to him, he admits that he doesn't like costumes and that he is just trying to support Rose. After the race, Zoey hears Max sing "New York State of Mind." She confronts him about this, and they get into an argument. When Zoey speaks to Dr. Tesoro about the incident, he suggests that her reaction to Max might be related to her fear of loss. Zoey tries to tell Simon this, but he seems suspicious that she still has feelings for Max. This is confirmed when he sings "Suspicious Minds" to Zoey. Maggie shows Deb all of the money she won gambling away her last paycheck from Roger. After Zoey hears them sing a duet of "Rich Girl," she encourages them to use some of the money for something fun, and Maggie and Deb make plans to go on a cruise together. Zoey goes to MaxiMo and apologizes to Max for how she acted during the double date, but he asks her for space.
