In Tears Dry On Their Own (2), Riley and Anya walk outside of school, and they talk about Doctor Chris.

Anya laughs and they begin talking about how they can find out if Doctor Chris is gay or not. They go to the hospital with a clipboard, they begin to interview the Doctor for their "relationship education" class. Doctor Chris lead them on that he was gay, by calling his old girlfriend by a partner, and that she was a doctor so he called her by doctor. Anya and Riley look at each other and ask other questions, Riley asks what he sees in a guy or a girl, and the doctor awkwardly answers that he tries to find the right girl, and never succeeds. Afterwards, Chris asks why they're asking these questions, and Anya tells them it's for their relationship class, and Chris asks if they're in university, and Anya lies and tells him that they are, and that's their extra class. Doctor Chris tells them that they're lucky because that wasn't a class when he was at college.

Later Dr Chris shows up, and Anya wonders what happened to Wesley. Dr Chris tells her that he's doing fine and has been released. It is later revealed that Wesley sent her for coffee so that Anya and Dr. Chris could hang out.

In When Love Takes Over, Doctor Chris gives Anya and her mother the good news: her mother's cancer is gone. But the bad news for Anya is that she won't be able to see Doctor Chris at the hospital any more. As she is leaving the hospital room, she picks up her bag, and under it, she sees Doctor Chris's calendar. Under that day, she sees "Pizza with Leslie." At lunch with Holly J., Anya makes a plan that her and Holly J. are going to the same pizza place that Doctor Chris is going to at 7pm. Instead of going up to Doctor Chris and talking to him, Anya makes Holly J. pretend to choke on an olive, so that Doctor Chris can come over and help her. After he does, Anya asks if she can reward him with a thank you dessert. He declines the offer because he is with someone for dinner. The next day at school, Anya and Holly J. call doctor Chris, but Anya hangs up before he answers because she is too nervous. Almost immediately afterwards, Doctor Chris calls back. Anya answers, knowing that if she didn't, it would go to voicemail and he would know it was her. She thanks him for helping Holly J. yesterday, and to Anya's surprise, he asks her to dinner that night. She accepts and they say goodbye and hang up.
