It's been two weeks and Maddie's father is determined to find out why she is avoiding going to her own home. Her parents decide to have a dinner party. Whilst there, Maddie meets a doctor who is interested in her. David is sure she'll return and does his best to keep up morale at Blue Moon. However, he still mopes about her. Bert and MacGillicudy are fighting over Agnes, and Bert is particularly upset because he has misread the situation. David stops him from doing any damage and takes him to a bar to help him forget. Whilst there they meet two lovely women. Maddie gives Agnes some big news.
