Seasons
Season 1
Cheeks (Brad Bell) and his until-recently ballplayer husband Brady (Sean Hemeon) give a press conference about their new marriage. Flashbacks reveal them hung-over in Vegas after celebrating a new marriage equality law and reacting in shock to the realization that they are married.
Season 2
At the time of their three week anniversary, Cheeks and Brady have settled into a new home. That morning, Cheeks photographs himself and Brady kissing and posts the picture online. Wes, Brady's agent, calls to inform him about the possibility that a morality clause, which Brady signed for his organization, might be broken because of the resulted media outrage regarding the photo. Accordingly, Brady asks Cheeks if he could cease his publicly flamboyant behavior, so that Brady's career wouldn't be jeopardized. Cheeks expresses his dissent with the idea, but hesitantly agrees, yet secretively implies an introspective insincerity.
