What would you do if you got cancer? Would you decide to dump your partner and start having s_e_x with a bunch of different people? No? Me neither, but that's what this character does lol. Gross.

What an awful, poorly conceived show. I truly can't believe this made it to air. Everyone involved should be embarrassed.

You've reached the end.
