Martha refuses to allow a frustrated Nick to have another stenographer since she can take dictation. Ed phones an unknown party and says he'll be over as soon as possible. Nick offers to take Althea and Penny out for an evening on the town. A matchmaking Penny excuses herself so that Nick can date Althea alone, but Althea suggests inviting Matt and Maggie along. Nick and Althea feel like they're out on their first date as they await the Powerses. Matt has news about the Anderson case.
