Monica does seem to forget she hates sex when she has had a few to many whiskey's. I can see the slum dwellers stocking up before their next visit to her lovely rented luxury apartment.:)

I wrote earlier in the thread that Monica's indifference and dislike of sex is due to her internal psychological problem, a psychological complex (this is my theory) and the fact that she begins to enjoy sex under the strong influence of alcohol, when her nervous system relaxes, psychological blocks disappear, only confirms this. In the first stage of intoxication, one's level of mental comfort increases. When the intoxication is more severe, things get even worse and here we see the real Monica, who, as you correctly point out, forgets that she hates sex.

Phillip and Steve are the only investors yet to commit to Biff or Monica. My feeling is that Phillip's agreement to invest will be the last that Monica will need. We still don't know what Steve will demand for his investment. Can't imagine it will be worse than what Phillip is asking. Guess we will have to wait and see.

It seemed to me that Steve was already on board and had agreed to the investment a long time ago. But okay, even if he hasn't already given his consent, after what Monica did for him at the casting in ep3, I don't think there will be a problem with getting his consent. After all, she'll do it again).
Something will need to happen that will cause enough desperation from Monica for her to agree to Phillip's terms.

For all of Monica's previous protests regarding her meetings with investors, it was usually resolved, as you may recall, quite simply. Biff promised her no money and to fire her from her job. The threat of dismissal and the possibility of becoming destitute is a universal argument that has worked for Monica before and will work now. The consequence of the dismissal is the inability to pay Victoria's money and, as a consequence, her likely arrest and sending her to the farm. Therefore, is anything else needed to make Monica even more desperate? I'm not sure about that.

I agree with you that Monica has a Psychological issue with desiring and enjoying sex. As we have talked about before she is the epitome of an Asexual person. I wouldn't go so far as saying that the real Monica comes out when she is drunk off her face. I find in life people when drunk either become much more social or become more aggressive. I wouldn't say an aggressive drunk's real self is an aggressive arsehole. Happy to agree to disagree this point with you.

Steve definitely hasn't agreed to invest in the magazine on screen. And I doubt Decent Monkey will miss out on the opportunity of putting Monica through her paces again to secure Steve's investment. I don't believe the events with Steve at the administrator casting will convince him. Phillip has already had Monica many times and still has further conditions for Monica to pass for him to invest.

Just on Monica needing more desperation to agree to Phillip. It might very well go the way you suggested and Biff will just threaten her with banishment from the office if Phillip refuses to invest. I'm looking forward as much as you for the Phillip path to continue, I'm just expecting it to conclude near the end of this episode.

I know individuals who, after drinking too much, become sad and silent and then fall asleep. Although sociability and aggression also have their place. I agree, an aggressive drinker won't necessarily be the same when he sobers up, rather the opposite. I am just saying that alcohol opens up and makes many people unleash and pour out certain features of their personality which in ordinary 'sober' life they hide deep inside up to the subconscious level. In Monica's case I meant that when she is drunk, her brain turns off mental barrier that in her normal sober state prevents her from being able to enjoy sex.

Yeah I suspect this is a result from the earlier Stephanie spoiler.

Could you explain why you think so?) I can't yet make the connection between the twins working at Monica's magazine and Stephanie, who doesn't even work there and who no one knows there. Maybe I'm missing something?

The connection is not with the twins it's with John. The guy Victoria set up as Stephanie's boyfriend for the swingers party. I'm just guessing here, the two spoilers may well not be connected.

Too little information so far. Need more data: the version of the FB game (what episode are you playing, 32bit or 64bit), the OS name and bit and screenshot of the "incompatibility error".
