Turnabout Is Fair Play
If you were to ask me,
it really is a good idea
for Leslie to move out
of the apartment she
once shared with Alec.
It's bad enough that
he told the rest of the
group a lie about his
engagement with her
which made Leslie
get so pissed and
confront that prick
about his infidelity.
He also caught poor
Leslie doing something
behind his back with
Kevin and kicked her
out of both their pad
and his life all together.
