• On Casey's last day with the network, the crew planned on having cake and presents after his final broadcast. Before the final broadcast, everybody with any kind of association with the network applauded and cheered Casey as he made his final trip to the studio.

The recent on-air gaffes, plus some confusion in the anchor rotation, cause the network to find some candidates to become Dan's permanent co-anchor. The network wants to attract more male viewers, and they feel they can do that by hiring a female anchor. Dana is worried if a woman is chosen, that woman will be hired mostly on her looks and not on her abilities. The network assures Dana they will select the best anchor on their merits.
