It really is a pleasure to see the talent and chemistry that Bruce and Cibyll had, this added to a wonderfully written script makes an episode 10 points. We begin with a typical discussion between the protagonists in the office, David arrives late and in a deplorable state to a work breakfast which makes Maddie explode, as usual in this third season the discussion is a step of brilliant and intelligent comedy. David informs Maddie that her former son-in-law died in an accident and must travel to New York, this upsets Maddie who did not know that David had been married. On impulse she follows him to Los Angeles to tag along, they each have their solo monologue moments and they're both great. In the middle we have a bonus which is a dance number to a Billy Joel theme from Maddie's dream. I never tire of repeating that the chemistry of both go beyond the screen and make the romance that is evident and that until now both refuse to see absolutely believable.

Every episode was like a movie

This episode demonstrates very well that moonlighting was put together from its foundation, high-quality! Like a movie. The twist and turns of the plot, the exposure of the characters vulnerability, the gentle display of concern and affection for each other, shows the development of David and Maddy as characters.
It even has its own soundtrack!
That said, there is a one part of this episode that sticks out like in ugly sore carpenters thumb that was just hit by a hammer, but stuck on a Barbie.
We see seeded in this episode, an agenda that matches 2024 (or is it 2030 agenda?).
The actor chosen to play the character Mrs. Kendrick has the knuckles of a boxer, the discreetly covered adam's apple via high neck dress, the heavy make up of a drag queen, the voice of Dustin Hoffman playing "Tootsie", and a mop of big 80s hair shaping a very masculine face. I am not fooled, and I don't appreciate it.
It's just more proof that no matter good a series seems, for now, the puppet masters will do whatever they want.
