This show is always at its best when one of the two main characters struggles with coming to terms with the fact that they are getting older. This time, both of them were. Here is a recap of the latest episode of "Up All Night."
The Brinkley boredom factor
When the TV breaks down during dinner in the Brinkley home, crisis ensues. Without TV to distract them, the two are forced to converse. Unfortunately, they have nothing to talk about. This makes Reagan think their relationship has hit a funk, and she enlists the help of Ava.
Ava advises Reagan to prepare some conversation topics for dinner, and Reagan writes them on index cards. The strategy backfires, but the two end up having plenty to talk about. This leads to a romantic tryst, and Reagan wants to do it outside. A nervous Chris ends up hurting her feelings, and she once again is left feeling bored.
In order to make up for it, Chris signs them up for a trapeze class. Reagan is pumped for the event, but Chris is terrified. It doesn't help when he's asked to sign a waiver in case he dies. Still, he reluctantly climbs the tower and is ready to go. Just as they are about to jump, Reagan becomes terrified, as well. Chris still tries to do it, but he has disastrous results. They both end up agreeing that trapeze was a terrible idea. However, Chris says that the important thing is that they are trying to do new things. They share a sweet kiss, and all is well with the couple.
Ava meets her biggest fan
It turns out that Ava is something of a hoarder. Not only is her house full of junk that she has accumulated over the years, but she also has a bunch of stuff left over from her canceled show. Reagan tries to help her realize that she needs to get rid of some stuff, and Ava reluctantly agrees to let Scott help her sell stuff online. Ava is thrilled that her stuff is selling, and she decides to hold a garage sale.
While holding that event, she meets her biggest fan. After talking to her, Ava decides that she needs to move forward and ends up giving away a lot of things. Among the many things she gives away is a prized mug, which Scott tells her she might miss. Ava realizes he's right, and attempts to get it back. The fan refuses to give it away, so Scott hatches a plan to steal it. Ava stops him, realizing that it's okay to lose the mug. She decides she needs a new favorite mug and gets one made that features a picture with Scott.
