'''Dan:''' Yes.\\

BigShutUp: Isaac insists Natalie needs footage of a particular block, while Natalie insists she doesn't because they blew it off in the rundown meeting; when Isaac asks if he can ask why, Natalie, who's been asking politely up till this time, bluntly tells Isaac he can't ask why right now, and says he can either fire her or stay quiet.
*FelonyMisdemeanorCallBack: To Casey's divorce.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Casey when he makes fun of the fact the restaurant they've all gone to is named "Tony Anthony's"; "In Cuba, [[Series/ILoveLucy Ricky Ricardo]] would have been Ricardo Ricardo."

HypocriticalHumor: Dana and Casey both try to convince Isaac (Casey also tries to convince Dan) they don't have to take their appointed day off so they can get out of the double date; as soon as Isaac leaves them both in the hallway, they call each other on trying to get out of the date. Also:

Dana and Gordon go out on a double date with Casey and a woman named Leesa. Both Casey and Dana are reluctant to do so, partly because they're worried about the show, but partly because of the [[{{UST}} tension between them]]. Meanwhile, Natalie's producing that night's broadcast, and while she didn't think it would happen, she stays on top of a story about a major baseball trade that happens before the trade deadline. Also, Dan has to co-anchor the show with Bobbi Bernstein, with whom he has a strange past.
