episode S5.E3 january 2019Alexis is able to secure a reservation at the motel for Emir Kaplan, an influential travel blogger specializing in writing about places and things off the beaten path. Beyond giving him extra special treatment, what Alexis, Johnny, Stevie and Roland decide to do as a team is a "hire" a plant as a fellow motel guest to talk up the greatness of the motel to him. With no money actually to hire someone to do this, they decide Stevie would be the best person in this role. Although nervous about doing it, Stevie ends up being good in the job, perhaps a little too good. Meanwhile, one too many interruptions by Ray leads to Patrick deciding that it's time for him and David to look for another apartment together. Alexis is able to convince David, despite not being totally convinced that they're ready, to take this step in moving in with Patrick. David has to balance his feelings about the first apartment they view, which Patrick loves but David hates, against not making it seem like he doesn't want to take this step with Patrick. And Jocelyn is feeling overwhelmed in meeting her commitments outside of the home, especially in preparing for an important Jazzagals performance, against her first priority of the baby. The actions of her fellow choir members may make Jocelyn feel like the one left out.The Dress
episode S5.E4 january 2019With finances already tight, Johnny is hit with a couple of unexpected bills. One is repair of the motel's hot water tank, which if he brought in a professional as Roland suggests instead of trying to fix it himself to save money, may lead to learning that the tank needs to be replaced in its entirety. The other, which is more discretionary in nature, is a $3,700 discounted couture, albeit off the rack, gown that Moira has just purchased to wear at the premiere - whenever it may be - of "The Crows Have Eyes III", the premiere at which she needs to look good as her reintroduction to the world of celebrity. Moira's expenses are not limited to the gown but also things to keep it looking pristine until the premiere. Johnny tries to drop hint after hint to Moira that they really can't afford such a gown, the question being if Moira will pick up the hints, and if she does if she will pay attention to them. Meanwhile, on Stevie's suggestion, she and David are driving to Elm Valley to do a tour of the botanical gardens during cherry blossom time, viewing cherry blossoms which has always been therapeutic for David. Stevie has brought David to Elm Valley on false pretenses, she who has no intention of going to the gardens at all, the trip which is a prearranged booty call encounter with Emir who is reviewing the hotel at which they will be staying. David and Stevie have to decide what to do as one item after another changes both their plans. And Alexis can feel the dislike emanating from Ted's temporary associate, Shannon, who went to vet college with Ted. When Alexis learns the story behind why Shannon is feeling the way she probably does, Alexis tries to diffuse the situation. In the process, it becomes a he said/she said/she said in Ted, Shannon and Alexis each having a different and conflicting point.Housewarming
episode S5.E5 february 2019Patrick is having a housewarming party he is planning without David's help, the latter who expects it to fail because of it. It doesn't help from David's perspective that Patrick's party theme is high school slumber party instead of the slightly inaccessible higher class theme David had in mind. But in the way of many high school parties, an incident happens during the course of one of the party games between David and an extremely drunk Ted, who has decided to let loose in needing to stay sober for the rest of the week due to an extremely busy work schedule, that is construed to be akin to friends crossing the line, which affects Patrick and Alexis in particular. Meanwhile, Jocelyn and Roland have asked almost everyone in town if they would be willing to babysit, that almost which excludes Johnny and Moira. Offended that Jocelyn and Roland asked others right in front of them, Johnny ends up offering his and Moira's babysitting services, unaware that Moira already has plans for the evening which she is unwilling to forgo. But Moira does end up staying in with Johnny. The evening will demonstrate if they could have been hands-on parents to David and Alexis in their baby years.Rock On!
episode S5.E6 february 2019The Jazzagals, on Jocelyn's initiative, are going to the Poison rock concert being held at the casino. If only because of how important the concert seemed to be for Jocelyn considering that it is one night out away from the baby, they are dismayed to tell her that the concert has been postponed due to the venue being double booked. To give Jocelyn that night out, they decide to go to the casino anyway. The rock concert may have been more important to Jocelyn than she originally let on, the reason for its importance which Moira tries to satisfy in some other way. Meanwhile, Johnny, back to the motel earlier than expected from running an errand, catches Stevie on a break being intimate with Emir on her phone. Johnny and Stevie have to figure out how to deal with this incident, especially considering Johnny having recently had a workplace professionalism session with Stevie and Roland. And across the store in plain sight of David, a cute twenty-something male customer gives Patrick his telephone number. While Patrick just wants to bask in the adoration, David feels that Patrick may need to get other men out of his system now and encourages Patrick to go out on a date with "Ken". After speaking to Alexis, David may regret giving Patrick this freedom, especially as no ground rules were laid for the date.A Whisper of Desire
