Plot summary
After Patrick proposed to him the previous day, David plans to reveal their engagement to their friends that night, following Moira's rendition of Cabaret, starring Patrick and Stevie. Upon entering the motel all giddy, Stevie deduces something is up, causing David to reveal the engagement to her. Later, when it is discovered that Stevie has disappeared, David again reveals the proposal to Roland, Moira, and Alexis, and the news quickly spreads.
The night of the musical, Johnny finds out about the engagement, and Moira initially intends to play the part herself, but Stevie returns in time, having run off to retrieve embroidered towels she bought for Patrick and David. During the musical, Moira provides encouraging words to Stevie, leading her to deliver a fantastic performance of Maybe This Time. That night, David attempts to reveal his engagement to the crowd, but is interrupted by those who already knew. Moira then screams at the revelation that The Crows Have Eyes 3: The Crowening, her new film, has been shelved.
