Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Darlene's (Linda Doucett) vow never to date anyone in show business is put to the test by a persistent Jon Lovitz in this episode of HBO's Emmy-winning late-night talk show satire. When Darlene is disturbed at the extravagant gifts bestowed upon her by Lovitz, an overprotective Hank (Jeffrey Tambor) takes matters into his own hands by telling Lovitz that Darlene is a lesbian. Not wanting to hurt Lovitz's feelings, Darleen decides to let the chips fall where they may and tell Lovitz the truth about why she never dates show business types -- they're too selfish. When Lovitz spots Beverly (Penny Johnson) sporting a bracelet he had given to Darlene, he takes Hank's ruse to heart and his feeling are crushed. As he walks off the show moments before air, Darlene has a change of heart and agrees to go on a date with Lovitz. Special guest stars include Mark Roberts, Elsa Raven, and Jon Lovitz.
