From Showtime:

When a stalker throws a brick through Chris' window, his record company insists he hire a bodyguard at their expense. He's reluctant at first, but eventually he picks Brock Rudman, an intimidating and eminently qualified personal security expert. Brock cramps Chris' style and scares off his friends – Lisa Loeb is visibly disappointed, thinking Chris has succumbed to the worst temptations of being a celebrity – but that's not the only problem. It seams the hired muscle has a broken heart and it falls to Chris to find a way to heal it.

Meanwhile, Anson is swept up in the paranoia and, since the record company won't pay for a bodyguard, he arms himself with a stun gun. And Yola, desperate to look her best for a Billboard magazine ""Women in Music"" feature, has a very bad hair day when she gets tangled in a romantic triangle with her favorite stylists, Maurice and Bridget.

From Showtime:

When Chris tries to convince Malcolm Gambol, the new VP at his label, to sponsor a major international tour, his pugilistic skills turn out to be as important as his musical ones. The diminutive executive, it seems, is a big fight fan and he wants to spar with Chris, who was once a successful amateur boxer. Chris takes it easy at first, but when Malcolm begins to taunt him, he puts the VP on the canvas. Strangely, that seems to win Malcolm over and he promises Chris the tour. But Chris soon learns that Malcolm doesn't limit his fondness for fisticuffs to the ring.

Anson, meanwhile, has an amazing new 19-year-old girlfriend named Melissa. Unfortunately for Anson, Melissa turns out to be Kenney's niece and she's got a very protective uncle. And Yola finally gets to meet Cody's parents and discovers that they are anything but the bluebloods he's been making them out to be.

From Showtime:

Chris starts to worry when the IRS announces it will be conducting an audit of his tax returns, especially since he's been using a low-rent accountant for years. And when his attempts to charm Greta Prussy, the IRS auditor, are met with cold stares, he figures he's in real trouble.

To further complicate matters, Yola's relationship with Brian, an environmental inventor and activist, is starting to heat up and Chris is beginning to feel just a little bit jealous that his manager is going to have a life in which he plays no part. Yola's colleague Cody, with whom she had a brief fling, also feels pangs of jealousy.

Anson, meanwhile, is getting an altogether different feeling – an itch, courtesy of a rash that has erupted in his nether regions. Panicked, Anson figures he picked up some exotic disease while visiting the family of his new Russian girlfriend, Svetlana.
