Unfortunately, after she begins dating Jonathan, Wanda finds out that her crew has captured footage of major health violations--in the cafeteria at the Board of Health. She must decide whether to produce a great exposé, embarrassing Jonathan, or suppress the evidence in order to preserve her relationship.
