Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Though Maggie's play about Adam and Eve is an exercise in dullness, Denise (Lisa Bonet) and Whitley (Jasmine Guy) agree to appear in the show--and promptly find themselves competing for the attentions of handsome "Adam" Rick Evans (Kenny Ransom). But upon learning that Rick is already spoken for, the girls vent their anger during the opening-night performance, resulting in a "Genesis" that very nearly turns into an "Exodus". And backstage, Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison) and Ron (Darryl M. Bell) do their best to simulate a convincing Garden of Eden with only 35 dollars between them.
