Despite Abby's best efforts to masquerade as a good Christian girl, her first day filming on Saying Grace is ruined as she sees the seedy underside of the motion picture business, and of her co-stars Brandon and Laura, which may threaten both her career and life. This is nothing compared to Nick's woes, as he is pitted against his former fling, the scorned and vindictive Sabrina, now that they are working together, and who sets out to destroy Nick's career. Meanwhile, Connor receives an interesting offer from A-list actress Jennifer Bell, and Raquel continues to hide her pregnancy from everyone so she can continue to work, but finds offers difficult to come by. Elsewhere, Beth and Simon arrive in Los Angeles, where they struggle to make their own way while trying to break into the film industry, which eventually leads to them moving into Alicia's vacant room at The Lux. Elsewhere, Kaldrick lands in the hospital after a suicide attempt and voluntarily commits himself to the psych ward, but he is still reluctant of opening up about his shame at being gay-apparently out of fear for his career, his tough reputation, and possibly his own life.
