The Unexpected Reality of Penthouse Life
Once they have relocated, the pals rapidly realize that they have been duped - their penthouse resembles a broken-down dump instead of the elegant dream they were sold. However, Tyler is adamant they can still utilize the apartment to impress women. He ends up being infatuated with the beautiful woman next door, Trista, a function represented by Kaley Cuoco.

The Escalation of Trouble

Exposing the Truth
Tyler's sweetheart Natasha (April Scott) all of a sudden checks out the penthouse and exposes Tyler's lies to Trista. Sophie, another neighbor, also discovers the deceptive architect claims. Natasha then tosses Tyler's horse race earnings out of the window, believing it's fake money, resulting in a free-for-all listed below their apartment or condo.
