The Nanny Connection

(10.5, by Lizzie) Maddie's thoughts leap ahead to childcare before little Bunny has made an entrance, only to find that she and David aren't on the same page. Maybe their latest case can give them a few things to think about.

The Truth

(#TBD, by FanofMoonligting and a friend) 1987 - Dream Sequence. I wrote this script with my friend sometime in 1987 when we were 13. It is really silly and not very good, but I thought I'd share it for a laugh.

What's Wrong with Maddie?

(#TBD, by FanofMoonligting) Summer 1987 - Dream Sequence. Maddie finds out she's pregnant and decides to go to Chicago to be with her parents. None of this had happened yet on the show in the summer of 87, so I don't know where I got that idea from.
