Witness for the Execution - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: When David and Maddie are debating whether or not to help Lawrence Everett, the towel David uses to wipe shaving cream off his face jumps around during the scene. It's around his neck, then in his hands, then on his shoulder, and back in his hands, etc. (00:15:40)
Maddie: That's your trouble, David - you think hot sex cures everything.
David: Well, it is an effective treatment for localized high blood pressure in males.
Question: What's with the show's title and why does their receptionist rhyme, and why'd she hire such a dork for a partner?
Answer: The show's title, "Moonlighting" was a take-off the agency's name, the "Blue Moon Detective Agency." The owner, Maddie Hays, a former model, renamed it after a shampoo brand she was once a spokesperson for. She did not hire her partner, David Addison. He already worked at the agency when Maddie took it over. The agency was struggling financially, and David convinced Maddie, who knew nothing about being a detective, that if she made him a partner, they could make it successful. Agnes, the receptionist, had a very quirky personality, and simply chose to use rhymes when answering the phone.
Correction: SPOILER ALERT: This wasn't a flashback, it was a dream. Since it is Bruce Willis' dream, he can mention "Stairway to Heaven" in the dream, because the song exists in his real life.
