 The episode starts out with Eric, who starts hanging out with his rich chem lab partner, Buddy, because of his really cool car. Buddy and Eric start to hang out and become best friends, to the chagrin of Kelso and Hyde (who hates Buddy because everyone else likes him). But when Eric tells of his relationship problems with Donna, it prompts homosexual Buddy to kiss him, and their friendship becomes too awkward to continue.
