Morning at the Molloy house finds Bonnie and Mark getting the kids ready for school, or at least trying to: a distracted Samantha is engrossed in the back of the cereal box and Charlie can't find his gym shorts. Meanwhile, due to a last minute cancellation on Morning Chicago, the station's local weatherman, Johnny Volcano (David Duchovny) — who is very eager to promote a film he has written, directed and starred in — has been booked.
