Carla is still asleep as the factory girls arrive for work. Fiz thinks Kirk was asking for advice so he could impress Izzy. Sally has received theatre tickets as a gift from an anonymous benefactor.

Peter pressures Carla to admit she has a drinking problem but she maintains that she can handle it. Anna continues to obsess over reports of the troops in Afghanistan. Nick shows Leanne around his bar. As she mourns her shattered dream, Nick suddenly asks her to manage it for him. She turns him down flat. Kirk delivers flowers for Julie but they're not from him.
