Summary
Labia has stayed the night with Matt who regrets his decision to ask her over, though they spend the day together at the studio, to Sean and Beverly's horror and disapproval. A newspaper article hints that Merc is under threat from the network and he tries to get new programme ideas from his clueless team, who are obviously struggling with the pressure he is putting on them. Sean quizzes Beverly about her date and is obviously dealing with it badly. Matt tries to gently persuade Labia to move on, but she refuses and tells him that she will always be there for him, no matter what he looks like or how much money he earns. Labia prepares to leave, but Diane rings Matt's phone and is horrified when she answers it. Network head, Elliot Salad, takes Carol out for a drink and tells her that Merc will be out after his 'Man of the Year' award and that Carol is slated to replace him. Beverly phones Sean and tells him that she will cancel her date with Rob if he tells her that there is a chance they will get back together, but Sean tells her to go, though he seems to regret the decision after he hangs up. After their second dinner date Beverly and Rob kiss.
