SYNOPSIS: David insists he’s perfectly fine with Maddie’s surprise marriage to Walter Bishop—but only because he’s convinced it isn’t real. Determined to prove his theory, he begins testing Maddie’s feelings at every opportunity, even calling her “Mrs. Bishop” in front of clients. Maddie is furious, while Agnes quietly admits she’s heartbroken that the couple she always believed belonged together may never be. As Terri prepares to give birth and Herbert starts digging into Walter’s mysterious past, it’s clear that nothing about this marriage adds up. Meanwhile, Blue Moon takes on what appears to be a straightforward case involving a wife who shoots her husband after hiring the agency to pay off his mistress. But when new evidence emerges, Maddie and David uncover a far more complicated conspiracy. Their investigation culminates in a classic Moonlighting car chase featuring a Mercedes convertible, Maddie’s BMW, and an unlikely post office van, delivering the perfect blend of mystery, comedy, and chaos.
