Plot

This final episode of Moonlighting's third season begins the morning after the BIG MOMENT, wherein David (Bruce Willis) and Maddie (Cybill Shepherd) finally consummated their romance. Now, the time has come for the proverbial "second thoughts"--which spill over into the protagonists' latest detective case, in which wealthy heiress Margaret Kendall (Ann Hearn hires them to find out if her current lover is sincere, or merely a fortune hunter. Episode highlights include a scene between David and Maddie in which they argue that having a "real" romance would ruin Moonlighting, ultimately exiling the series to a suicide timeslot on Sunday nights (which, as it turned out, is exactly what would happen two years later!) ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
