The play's main conflict revolves around Shannon's decision to stop and spend the night at Maxine's rather than the hotel advertised in the tour brochure. This decision is a source of conflict throughout the play.

Another main conflict can be found within Shannon, and his inability to accept the loss of his church and move on with his life.
