Plot
In Ryan and Beth's house, Ryan gets dressed for dinner at the restaurant MannaMia's with Eve. Before he could leave, Beth reminds him about Sunday Funday; which is today. Unfortunately, Ryan forgot about the event and tells her that they could do it next week as he cannot postpone another date night for her and has work for the next five days after. Beth reluctantly decides to let Ryan go on his date, in which her kindly thanks her for. After dinner, Ryan returns home in time to pick up Beth for a movie tonight to make up for turning down Sunday Funday. Exiting the theater, Ryan was given an epiphany after watching the movie they were seeing. Curious, Beth wants to know, only for Ryan to tell her back home. Arriving home, Ryan goes up to his room and takes out a box, revealing a ring inside, followed by saying he will propose; much to Beth's shock. Preparing for bed, she tries to convince him out of proposing to her, but he has no interest in doing so. Tearing up, Beth is heartbroken about this.

The next morning at the mall, Beth tells Maria about Ryan's decision to propose to Eve. Despite Maria being happy for him, Beth is against his intention of doing so; as well as thinking she is "bad news". Maria suggests to Beth that she should find out some stuff about her, especially her secrets. At home, she gets Ryan to tell her about Eve's traits while writing them down for claiming she wants to "know her better". After getting some certain information about her, she seems that it is barely enough to convince Ryan out of proposing to her, so she decides to find out more about her. She follows her wherever she goes while in hiding, along with taking photos and notes along the way. Telling Maria all the proof she was able to get (knowing she is a narcissist, dislikes jazz, enjoys horror movies, adores heavy metal rock, and has a subscription to an "adult oriented" magazine Readers' Indulge), Maria wants her to find the reason Ryan loves her; in which she finds out that he finds her attractive, has nice hair, enjoys her musical skills, and has a beautiful voice. Sharing her given information, Maria decides to share it with someone else than just her.

Going over to Roseanne, Beth fills her in about her somewhat hatred against Eve and everything she had told Maria about. Roseanne suggests to have her find out if she loves Ryan back. Breaking into Eve's house (by using the extra key under the doormat), Beth, heads into her room to find proof to reveal to Ryan. discovering Eve coming home, she hides under her bed. Entering her room and on the phone with one of her friends, Eve says to her that her affection with Ryan are all a ruse to get his family's riches (after discovering about his family from the events of "Eve's Visit to Ryan's Dad"), much to Beth's shock.
