The Sports Night crew returns to the studio from a bomb scare 15 minutes before the show goes on-air and naturally everyone is a little worked up. Casey (Peter Krause) and Dan (Josh Charles), however, can't seem to get over the fact that someone would try to blow up their building and they proceed to obsess about their near-death experience for some time to come. Dana (Felicity Huffman) has bigger issues to deal with, since Isaac's (Robert Guillaume) stroke has left her in charge of running the operations of the show in addition to her production responsibilities. The network sends J.J. (Robert Mailhouse) to talk with Dana about how to run the show and convinces her that Sally (Brenda Strong) is CEO Luther Sach's choice in assisting Dana, and not Natalie (Sabrina Lloyd). Still freaked out about his parents' divorce, Jeremy (Joshua Malina) makes the bizarre decision to break up with Natalie -- only Natalie calmly refuses to let him. Meanwhile, Rebecca (Teri Polo) tracks Dan down and accuses him of hiding from her and demands to know why. ~ Ryan Shriver, All Movie Guide

Dan's (Peter Krause) nonstop wooing of Rebecca (Teri Polo) appears to be going nowhere, in spite of the fact that he is getting to know everyone she works with as he continues his quest to get her to go out with him. His most recent proposal is watching a tape of a baseball game with him -- which Rebecca finds to be pretty unappealing, considering her total lack of interest. Returning from a vacation spent with his parents, Jeremy (Joshua Malina) makes a segment proposal about a sailing yacht that was lost at sea during a race it was favored to win. After winning approval, Jeremy sinks himself totally into the story -- much to the chagrin of his girlfriend Natalie (Sabrina Lloyd), who senses that something happened on his vacation. As Natalie traps Jeremy in his office and forces him to come clean, Rebecca traps Dan in his office -- but she is the one making the revelations about herself and her persistent denials of Dan's affections. ~ Ryan Shriver, All Movie Guide

Still smarting over being rejected by Rebecca (Teri Polo) -- the beautiful woman who works in the same building as the Sports Night crew -- Dan (Josh Charles) continues his relentless quest to get the mysteriously distant woman to go on a date with him. Since Casey (Peter Krause) has refused numerous times to speak to Rebecca on his behalf, Dan talks Jeremy (Joshua Malina) into doing it -- and Jeremy learns that Rebecca is the former wife of another popular TV sportscaster. After distinguishing the differences between her ex and him, Dan finally convinces Rebecca to go on a date. As Dana (Felicity Huffman) still fears that Gordon wants to break up with her, she very reluctantly agrees to go on a snorkeling trip with him -- despite her fear of being in close proximity to fish and any other type of marine life. While struggling to come to terms with her fear, Gordon calls and cancels the trip -- prompting Natalie (Sabrina Lloyd) to push Casey into reaching out to Dana. ~ Ryan Shriver, All Movie Guide
