It's the night of the season opening concert. Behind the scenes, Cynthia has been avoiding Bob ever since their union meeting turned into a drug-induced sexual liaison. Cynthia knows she has to confront him as they cannot work together, both on the union committee and in the orchestra as a whole, under a misconception. Thomas, a different man since he left, has returned to witness his first concert as a member of the audience. Ana Maria has displayed volatile behavior in rehearsals which may ultimately affect what she will do on stage. And after discussions with Alex, Betty and a subsequent offer from Lizzie, Hailey reevaluates her goal of ever playing in a major orchestra, New York or any other. Rodrigo's grand gesture to the musicians for opening night affects one directly, which in turn affects Hailey. Hailey has to decide what to do about the unexpected emotions displayed at the end of the night.
