David and Patrick are in bed at Patrick’s room at Ray’s house. Patrick is reading a book and drinking coffee, and David is sleeping on his shoulder. Ray barges in saying “Knock, Knock, everybody decent.” Patrick politely reminds Ray that he is supposed to actually knock and not just say knock. Ray offers to make them breakfast and keeps coming in and out, while Patrick and David get increasingly more annoyed. The last straw is when Ray tells David that despite talking about how much he eat, Ray has seen him walk to the shower and he looks fine. Patrick realizes David isn’t going to take this well and says they need a minute. When Ray is gone, Patrick says they have to look for an apartment, and David is surprised but agrees. Ray returns, and David still wants breakfast.

At the Cafe, Moira is telling Ronnie a Bosnian story. Twyla brings their food and asks if Moira is telling more Bosnian stories. Ronnie says she never seems to run out of them. Moira then tries to order an obscure Bosnia pastry called a kifla. A disheveled Jocelyn arrives with Roland jr in a stroller and notices Ronnie and Moira have already ordered even though she is seven minutes late. She is tired and regrets that Roland has to work so she might miss rehearsal for the Jazzagals. Ronnie and Twyla say motherhood comes first. Jocelyn hints that she wants to come, but the others don’t get the hints, and Moira offers to step in as the leader. Twyla offers to do her solo. Roland jr. starts to cry, and Jocelyn says these days either he’s crying or she is. She leaves with the baby, clearly frayed.
Johnny, Alexis and Roland welcome Emir to the motel, and Alexis introduces Johnny as the manager and Roland as the guest services liaison, which he insists being pronounced with a French accent along with his name. He offers a bunch of services the motel doesn’t offer and Alexis laughs loudly at Emir’s mild joke. Roland and Alexis take him to his room, and Stevie appears and pretends to be Miss Felmington, a happy guest. She is clearly uncomfortable. Alexis, Johnny and Roland leave. Stevie continues her role, but when Emir starts to flirt with her, they start to banter. Stevie smiles at him.
Alexis arrives at her room to find David, and she asks him to stay at Patrick’s because his vibe is intense and they’ve got a VIP guest. David says he’s a selling point. They then discuss Patrick and David looking at an apartment, and Alexis is excited that they might be living together and she might get the room to herself.

David and Patrick are in the hall of the apartment building, and David is already skeptical. Patrick tells David that when he moved to town and got a room with Ray, he didn’t know how long he’d be staying. He smiles at David and says, now here we are. Ray appears and says this is bittersweet because he’d be losing Patrick as a roommate, but he’d be gaining a commission. He shows them into a very small studio apartment and shows them around. David is even more skeptical, but Patrick loves it. David looks for the closets, and Ray shows him a “step-in” closet. Patrick says it’s pretty, and David says…it’s pretty…and does not finish.
Alexis, Roland and Johnny welcome Stevie back, and Johnny is concerned. Emir and Stevie team up, and he needles Johnny and says he wants to take Miss Felmington to dinner. Alexis isn’t happy with losing control of the situation. When Stevie and Emir are alone, he says he wants to go finish his review before dinner so he won’t be biased.
Patrick and David stand in the apartment, and Patrick says he wants it. David says no, Ray is obnoxious and Patrick realizes he thinks they are moving in together. He gently corrects David and says he wants the place for himself alone. So, David agrees that if it is just for Patrick and occasionally David would be sleeping over, he thinks it is cute. Patrick then smiles and asks if he thought they were ready to move together. David, relieved, says it was a timing and a closet space issue but they can negotiate down the line. They kiss, and Ray interrupts them.
At the motel, Alexis is in her pajamas and reads Emir’s rave to Johnny and Moira. David arrives and snarks on the review, and he wants to know how to sign up for the turn down service.
