Murphy Brown (1988)
S04E20 Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are
Episode Overview
After Miles recounts a dream to Frank that he considers homoerotic, involving him and the new PR guy, Rick, playing around, Miles becomes anxious. Frank brushes it off, suggesting that Miles might have picked up on Rick's sexual orientation, while Murphy insists that Rick isn’t gay, leading them to wager on it. When Rick arrives at the office, the group bombards him with personal questions to uncover more about his sexuality. To their surprise, Rick openly confirms he is gay, leaving everyone embarrassed. Feeling unsettled, Miles visits multiple therapists, all of whom suggest he might be gay. Unsure of what to do, he seeks advice from Frank and then Murphy, neither of whom provide much clarity. Eventually, Rick invites Miles to Phil's to review the new promotional materials. Reluctantly, Miles agrees, but once there, it’s clear he’s trying to find excuses to avoid the meeting.
