In 2017, Mitch Kessler stresses over turning 50. His affair to Mia recently over he has Chip remove her from his team and place her with Alex who the network is considering replacing as her likability numbers are tanking. The cast and crew of "The Morning Show" surprise Mitch with a huge birthday party at the studio where Claire meets weatherman Yanko for the first time.

As the party winds down Hannah begins to hear reports of the 2017 Las Vegas shooting breaking over Twitter. Mitch and Alex travel to Vegas to cover the shooting with Mitch asking Chip to bring Hannah, still only a junior booker, along with the team. Alex and Mitch struggle emotionally with the reporting. When Mitch cannot sleep he heads out to a memorial and runs into Hannah. Taking her to his motel room he proceeds to rape her.

In New York Hannah barges into Fred's office who stops her before she can report the rape and promotes her to head booker.
