This episode is excerpts from all 3 parts of 'Iceland', the story of

Lila.
 
Joe tells of his relationship with his girlfriend, Lila,
particularly what he dislikes: her huge purse which contains lots of
stuff - she has to dump it all out to find what she's looking for;
she's fussy in restaurants; has poor table manners; she loses things
at the movie theatre, insists on searching while the movie plays.
 
She mistakenly gives Joe a letter from her mentor, Professor Vogel,
who lives in Iceland, who is dying.  He promises his estate to Lila if
she'll visit once more before he dies.  He describes their sexual
relationship.  After that Joe continues to read his letters to her,
which describe their 'nights of passion'.  He finds out she's visited
him when she has told Joe she's at a conference.<ref>originally aired
