Meanwhile, the network is shooting promotional videos for Brooke and Mike.

Celebrities: None appear.

Quotes:
MARTIN DI STASIO: Brian was contracted for three years, he’ll walk away with half a mill, if you gotta go that’s the way to go, I’m telling you – golden handshake.
STU: More like a golden kick up the arse.
JAN: We’re shooting it in a way that on one need be within a 5 kilometre radius of each other.
EMMA: Why?
JAN: Eh… this is television darling, everyone hates everybody else, that’s why we spend so much time promoting how well we all get on… one big family darling.
BROOKE: Jan, it says here I’ve gotta do a high-five with the weatherman.
BROOKE: Good, cause I’m not touching him.
CAVELL: Ed here has kindly agreed to step in and keep an eye on Frontline until we get a permanent replacement.
EMMA: As…?
CAVELL: E.P.
EMMA: Executive Producer.
CAVELL: Well, that’s what it usually stands for, isn’t it Ed?
ED: Oh, I’ve heard that it can also mean ‘Enormous Penis’.
(Ed and Cavell chuckle)
MIKE MOORE: Alright, geez, just cause the show’s not falling apart like you thought it would.
EMMA: I did not think it would.
MIKE MOORE: Well, whatever, I think Ed’s doing a pretty bloody good job!
EMMA: Well, he’s not the only one doing a pretty bloody good job!
MIKE MOORE: Alright, alright… no wonder they get blokes to run things.
EMMA: Hello Mrs Rosen, thanks for coming in so early. Um, have you been to make up?
MRS ROSEN: Make up is the devil’s work. Satan, his face was painted white to hide the darkness of his soul.
EMMA: Right. No make up.
DOM: Em! Em! Em! Em! (pulls out flowers) They’re from Ed.
EMMA: (Under breath) Ugh, he really is an enormous penis.
BROOKE: Don’t bet on it.
MIKE MOORE: It is two lines!
SOMEONE IN OFFICE: What?
MIKE MOORE: It is two lines… Brooke has two lines. She had two lines and Jan told me if wasn’t two lines.
BROOKE: Excuse me, I had to shake hands with the fucking weatherman!
MIKE MOORE: Excuse me! His name is Geoffrey Salter you shit!
