As Ellen returns for its fourth season, episode three titled "Splitsville, Man" opens with the audience's typical applause and cheers as the host, Ellen DeGeneres, introduces herself and her impressive guest list for the day. It's apparent that they mean business today!

The show's first guest is none other than Michael Bolton, who joins the chat with Ellen through a virtual call. The two take a trip down memory lane and reminisce about working together in previous shows, before Bolton brings up the reason for his visit - his upcoming reality show, "Bachelor Hall of Fame." Ellen is excited to hear about it and teases Michael about having multiple girlfriends on the show and whether he would have ultimately wanted things to work out with his ex-fiancee. They share a laugh about his past and share that it's what makes their friendship unique.

The show's second guest is Paul Reiser, who joins Ellen on stage to discuss his new show, "There's Johnny!" Reiser shares his affinity for the 70s and how his show explores what life was like for late-night talk shows during this period. They also discuss Ellen's appearance on the iconic "Johnny Carson Show" and the importance of the late-night television industry at the time.

The third guests are Ryan Gentles and Tony Valenzuela, owners of the popular Split Rock Resort in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania. They join Ellen on stage to discuss their adventures in the hospitality industry. Split Rock has been a popular destination in Pennsylvania for years, and their visit to the show was to introduce a new attraction which Ellen finds enjoyable. Ryan and Tony share their experience of starting from scratch and building the resort. Ellen asks her audience to visit the location and ends the segment with an amusing joke.

Later in the hour, Ellen plays one of her most popular games, 'Heads Up.' Guest Paul Reiser sticks around to participate, and the two have fun playing "70's Trivia," to the delight of the audience.

Finally, the show concludes with the host's legendary dance break, accompanying the musician in the studio and cheering it up with a pep rally dance number. The episode ends, bidding goodbye to the audience, and leaving a joyful vibe in the air, making its viewers look forward to the next day's show.
