Moira Rose (Catherine O'Hara) is about to learn just why social media is so popular and the internet will never be the same again.

The synopsis for the next episode reveals that with the help of Alexis (Annie Murphy), Moira Rose makes her social media debut, and if we know anything about Moira, it is going to be a memorable occasion.

Meanwhile, David (Daniel Levy) and Patrick (Noah Reid) once again face one of their relationship's greatest challenges: David's pride.

A resurfaced childhood incident embarrasses David enough to send him spiraling. Patrick, of course, is his ever-patient, loving, understanding self, but that's only going to make things worse. 

On the business side of things, Johnny Rose (Eugene Levy) is still seeking to expand his motel enterprise with Stevie (Emily Hampshire). Together with Roland (Chris Elliot), they're off to scope out what nearby motels have to offer.

Bringing Roland along may not have been the best idea, but for better or worse, he's now a part of the Rosebud Motel empire — assuming they can find an adequate motel with which to expand.

The official synopsis for Season 6 Episode 2, 'The Incident,' reads: "David is embarrassed by a childhood issue that resurfaces, and only spirals further when Patrick is so understanding; Johnny, Stevie and Roland attend a viewing for a nearby motel; Alexis helps Moira join social media."

Will Moira take to social media like a fish to water or will she be left gasping by a stream of negative comments? Will this motel viewing be the first step in the Roses regaining their lost fortune?

What will break David out of his spiral, and most pressingly, what was the incident that caused him so much embarrassment in the first place? Find out on this week's episode of 'Schitt's Creek'.

Season 6 of 'Schitt's Creek' premieres on Pop TV on Tuesday, January 14, 2019, at 9/8c.
