Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Ed (Darren E. Burrows) just can't seem to get started on his "Hollywood blockbuster" screenplay. The relationship between Shelly (Cynthia Geary) and Holling (John Cullum) is threatened by the arrival of Wayne Jones (Brandon Douglas), a 19-year-old hockey player from Saskatchewan; it seems that it slipped Shelly's mind to tell Holling that Wayne is her husband. And will Rick Pederson (Grant Goodeve) be the next victim of "Maggie's Curse," whereby all the previous boyfriends of Maggie O'Connell (Janine Turner) have met with untimely (and grimly amusing) deaths? Native-American actor Buffalo Child appears as Dave the Cook, a role essayed in later episodes by William J. White. Watch for the reference to -- of all things -- Midnight Cowboy.
