SYNOPSIS:

The lines often get blurred in Moonlighting, and this is one example. David is still in prison, and nobody knows where he is. It’s not only his friends who are wondering where he is; it’s also network executives. They seek the services of a fortune teller, who uses a crystal ball in an attempt to locate David, but all she sees are bars. Following this, they begin auditioning to find a replacement. We begin to see the auditions, with men in line all dressed up in various outfits that David wore in previous episodes. David is released from solitary confinement and placed in a work gang, where his fellow convicts advise him to marry Maddie.

Bert is using his new, temporary title of Blue Moon supervisor, awarded to him by David, to put the employees in line. David witnesses illegal activities by a prison guard, who is about to kill him, but fortunately, a riot starts, allowing David to escape unnoticed. Agnes and Bert decide to start investigating the whereabouts of “Mr. Addison.”

The episode features a lengthy musical number performed by the prisoners in the style of "When I Was a Lad" from Gilbert and Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore.

SYNOPSIS:

Agnes is so excited when she hears the news that Maddie is pregnant. Unfortunately, she can’t keep it to herself for long, and tells Bert. But states in uncertain terms that he is not to tell David.

But Bert can’t help himself and goes straight into David’s office to inform him. David races to the airport to catch a flight to Chicago. In the airport lounge, he is tricked by convict Scott “Mad Dog” Hundley, on his way to prison, and they switch places. He ends up going to jail in Hundley’s place.

Agnes is giving herself a facial when she realizes Bert is below her window with his Uncle Phil’s band, serenading her with the song “Sexual Healing.” She lets him into her apartment and tells him that she is worried because Miss Hayes said that Mr. Addison never showed up in Chicago.
