Bonnie and the Morning Chicago gang participate in the station's annual telethon, and their slot — as usual — is in the middle of the night. Hard pressed to fill the time, everyone pitches in with whatever talents they have.
Bonnie's producer, David, decides to pick her up for work in the morning — as she's always late — and in his haste leaves without turning off his iron, causing his home to go up in flames. Feeling guilty and somewhat responsible, Bonnie invites him to move in with her family while his house is being renovated, much to Mark's frustration, when Life with Bonnie premieres on its new date and time.
With David still staying at the Molloy home after his house burned down, Bonnie hears David talking about her in his sleep and is convinced he has a crush on her.
