Jeremy gets "the call"; he's sent to the Adirondacks to produce a segment for a CSC outdoors show. Jeremy has misgivings about this, since it's a hunting show, but keeps them to himself. This turns out disastrously when Jeremy faints and has to go to the hospital. When he gets back, Jeremy tells Isaac and Dana what happened; they shot a deer in front of him (and in front of its offspring), which made him sick. Isaac, however, points out if Jeremy felt that strongly about hunting, he should have said something about it, and he might not have had to go in the first place.
Elsewhere, the staff is invited by Luther Sachs (head of the CSC network) to a party after the Thursday night broadcast, which, of course, gives [[ShipperOnDeck Natalie a chance to get Casey and Dana together]]. Casey claims he's not going to be interested in Dana, until (a) he gets a load of what she's wearing to the party, and (b) at the party, he meets Dana's date, Gordon.
