He has a brief conversation with a tearful Alyssa, and gives her a copy of Chasing Amy, his new comic based on their relationship. It is revealed that Holden has dissolved their partnership over Bluntman and Chronic, leaving the viewer with assumption that he sold the publishing and creative rights over to Banky (and this is corroborated in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back). One year later, both Banky and Alyssa are busy promoting their own respective comics at a comic book convention in New York. Relieved he will not have to get involved in a three-way, Banky also leaves. Though initially appalled, Banky agrees to participate, whereas Alyssa breaks up with him on the spot and leaves, stating that though she loves him, she will not be his whore. He invites them both over, and claims that the three of them must have sex with each other. Angry at himself for letting her go, he's spent the rest of his life since then "chasing Amy." Inspired by Silent Bob's story, Holden devises a plan to fix both his relationship with Alyssa and his fractured friendship with Banky. Despite the fact that he was in love with his girlfriend, Amy, his insecurities about her adventurous sexual past caused him to sabotage the relationship and leave her. Later, during a lunch with Jay and Silent Bob, Silent Bob reveals that he was once in a relationship similar to Holden's. She apologizes for letting him believe that he was the only man she had been with however, she refuses to apologize for her past, and Holden leaves feeling angry and confused. Holden learns that she is not a lesbian in the strictest sense (lesbian-identified bisexual would better describe her sexual orientation). During a tearful argument, she tells Holden about her "many" youthful sexual experimentations. Holden angrily confronts Alyssa while attending a hockey game. Holden is deeply disturbed by this revelation, having believed that Alyssa had never been sexually involved with men. Banky begins to dig up dirt on Alyssa's past, and reports to Holden that Alyssa participated in threesome in high school. This new development deepens tension between Holden and Banky. She initially considers his confession unfair and inconsiderate since she is a lesbian, but that night the two begin a romantic relationship. Eventually, Holden is no longer able to contain his feelings, and confesses his love to Alyssa.
