She’s apprehensive, not knowing what sort of welcome awaits her there.As soon as they see Maddie, the employees roll out the red carpet; they’re so excited to see her back at work.David is so happy that she has finally returned but they get into an argument when she says she needs more time.

SYNOPSIS:Maddie’s mother has guessed that Maddie’s pregnant due to her constant morning sickness. Meanwhile, back at Blue Moon, the furniture is being repossessed, as the bills haven’t been paid in David’s absence and the employees begin to rebel. Herbert’s dictatorial leadership skills are not helping the situation so the employees demand, “No work and pay!”—and walk out. David returns to Blue Moon to find Agnes and Bert in an empty office. Maddie’s father turns up to speak to David. He’s found out about the pregnancy and wants David to “do the right thing.” David has a fight with Agnes back at Blue Moon, which makes him realize he needs to fully explain the situation to Mr. Hayes. He rushes to the airport and boards the same plane as Mr. Hayes to explain his relationship with Maddie in real detail and to tell him how much he loves her. They resolve their differences on the plane. Mr. Hayes apologizes and gives David a check to restore Blue Moon’s financial situation. The next morning, David arrives at Blue Moon being rolled in on Maddie’s desk by men replacing the furniture. He makes a speech about how the business is now back operating as normal. The episode ends with David reading a book on fatherhood.MOONLIGHTING THE TV SHOWThe show is all about the hit TV Show Moonlighting which aired from 1985 to 1989 starring Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd.Grace Chivell and Shawna Saari take a look at each episode in chronological order from the Pilot to the end of the fifth and final season.They discuss the direction, the production, the outfits, the lighting, the car chases, and the tumultuous relationship between Maddie Hayes and David Addison.FOR MORE INFORMATION:https://moonlightingthepodcast.comMOONLIGHTING COMMUNITY:Fans Facebook Group:Facebook Page:Instagram Twitter/XPURCHASE:Moonlighting: An Episode Guide Bookon TuckerDSPressOR on Amazon:Moonlighting MerchandiseSubscribe to our YouTube Channel Learn more about Grace here:Learn more about Shawna here:Donate at Ko-fi.comPersonal Instagram:https://instagram.com/grace_chivellhttps://instagram.com/saari_not.saari Hosted on Acast.
