Complete story — includes the ending
Fran is hired by an avant-garde director to play Juliet in a reproduction of Romeo and Juliet. Unbeknownst to her, the director is hoping for the play to fail so that he can do better on his taxes. Meanwhile, Maggie wants to go to the Hamptons, but Maxwell will not allow it. Fran tries to convince him otherwise. Maxwell and Fran also share their second kiss during a rehearsal of the play. This is the first episode where Fran explicitly tells Maxwell she wants to be more to him (romantically) than just the nanny. When C.C. discovers the truth, Maxwell takes it upon himself to save Fran, only for her to choose to leave the play on her own terms.
