Avenue Q Synopsis? *SPOILERS*

I own the music from "Avenue Q", but I haven't seen it. I want to know when Brian & Christmas Eve get married, and why Kate Monster sings "There's a Fine, Fine Line", etc. Does anyone know where I could find a complete synopsis of the plot online?

Does Rod ever come out? Is Nicky straight?

Spoiler
but yes and yes

Yes & Yes. He comes out towards the end, expecting it to be a revelation but nobody is surprised... Nicky is straight, but he finds Rod a boyfriend who looks almost exactly like himself!

Rod's probably the only character in that show who truly ends up living happily ever after.
"Nicky and Ricky...my cup runeth over!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Ricky? lol. I forgot that part - its been a few months since I saw Avenue Q! One thing I wondered was why, if Rod is an investment banker, is he living on Avenue Q? To stay with Nicky, maybe?

Oh come on ozboy, Trekkie's a [HUGE SPOILER] millioniare and he's living on Avenue Q. Their friends do to. And maybe it's the only area in New York where puppet and monster racism isn't prevelant.

You do have a point there. Best not to think about these things - my brain hurts! That line ("In volatile market, only stable investment is porn") has entered my vocab in a big way.. I have to refrain from blurting it out in just about every finance class I go to!

Wait, why don't the other people live happily ever after? And why does the purpose that Princeton finds fall through before "For Now"? And who is Livinia?

Lavinia is Mrs. T, theyre the same person. She's the teacher Kate works as a TA for until she gets fired/quits.

Princeton never really does find his Purpose, he finds what he thinks his purpose could be.

And they may live happily ever after but the show treats it realistically and it isnt a fluffy end that way.

Okay, a few more questions (sorry for so many!).

What are the Bad Idea Bears? When do they come in? What are their bad ideas? Who plays them? And who plays Mrs. T?

Mr.Lyon and Ms.Barnhart play the BIBs
They appear throughout the show giving Princeton really bad ideas (like having a drinking game with Kate which leads to THE LOUD SONG)
