Shannon travels to NY to join the KISS tour and spend quality time with Gene only to learn he has a prior commitment with a journalist. Gene sticks Shannon with his friend and native New Yorker, Tony, to ensure she doesn't take out her anger on his wallet. While Gene and the journalist take us through a never-before-seen tour of Gene's past (including the Jr. stage where he performed for the first time,) Shannon saves the day when Tony loses his wife's anniversary present.
