The newest episode saw a shocking new development that was as steamy and racy as it could get. Miranda, who had certain chemistry with Che right from the start, now had an exciting new 'interaction' with her. When Che comes over to do shots of tequila with Carrie, she is greeted at the door by none other than Miranda who is there to take care of her friend. When she suggests that Che have shots with her instead, it leads to both of them getting drunk which is when the mood gets hot. 

Che proceeds to kiss Miranda's neck. It surprises Miranda but she likes it. Giving her consent to Che, the two have sex in the kitchen with the spark between the two finally igniting. After the deed, Miranda even tells Carrie that she never felt like this before and doesn't want to stop, following a brilliant scene that had her break down and admit how unhappy she is in life.
