In the hospital, Kate is upset to find that Chelsea has another temperature. Dr. Dan barks at Nurse Jenny to get the rest of the test results while Tony walks in bearing flowers and tells Kate he's there to talk about the commercial with her. Kate puts him off but Chelsea doesn't want Kate to postpone. Dr. Daniel promises Chelsea will be fine and she needs rest, so Chelsea tells Kate she's in excellent hands and she should talk to Tony. The pair head to the door as Daniel grimaces at the mention of being in excellent hands.
In a hospital corridor, Tony tells Kate how they need her feedback for the commercial with set design. She can't concentrate on it now but promises to be at the shoot.
Anna waltzes into Chez Rouge. Her mood turns sour as she spies Tony and Morgan. She loudly requests a drink at the bar and Tony goes to her. He greets her and asks if she's there for business or pleasure. "That's what I'd like to know," she says. He shares that he's there with Kate Roberts to discuss business. Anna retorts that Kate used to be in the business of pleasure. She confuses Tony by telling him that maybe if he plays his cards right, he'll get lucky!
Meanwhile, at a nearby table, Morgan and her father, Paul, sit, after a dance. He tells her his reputation will be repaired, though he likely won't get his job back. The person who got him into this mess is going to be getting him out of it. Morgan worries but he asks if they can change the subject and have a nice dinner.
John and Marlena dine nearby. John tells Marlena that this dinner is to celebrate starting fresh. Marlena grins as he toasts them. He wants to show her there is something to like about himself and feels if he can connect with Marlena, he may be able to work up to something more. Maybe she'll like the new him! Anna arrives at their table and interrupts. "I know I do," she says, grinning salaciously. John invites her to sit and she tells Marlena she's no longer with Tony. Marlena wants to help but Anna isn't sure she wants her to bother. "He's as thick as they come," she says and compliments John, who she thinks is more perceptive with women. John nods and grins when she tells him she bets he knows exactly what she wants! Meanwhile, Tony watches with jealously from afar. John tells Anna that she's a remarkable woman but doesn't mean it as a compliment. Anna's face falls and Marlena is astonished when John accuses Anna of making Tony jealous. A mortified Anna runs off and Tony, who has been watching, arrives while Marlena goes to see how Anna is doing. Tony apologizes to John for Anna. John urges him to stop ignoring her. If he wasn't married, he just might go out with Anna. He finds her very attractive! Tony is shocked and tells him he wouldn't allow it! John reassures him that Anna only has eyes for him. He brings up Paul Hollingsworth. He says the man has been accused of some wrong doings and he'd like Tony to spin it. Morgan and Paul turn up as Tony's trying to figure out where he has heard the name before.
At the bar, Marlena goes to Anna, who apologizes for flirting with John. Marlena knows she was just trying to get to Tony and doesn't think she needs to do that. Anna becomes emotional and tells Marlena that Tony doesn't respect her. Marlena thinks Tony adores her. Anna thinks Marlena is lucky to have John, but Marlena tells Anna that they've no past together. Anna comments that Marlena is blind - this new John clearly has feelings for her! Marlena admits she finds it confusing but urges her to be careful, before some other woman tries to take him away from her!
Marlena arrives at John's side at Chez Rouge and John tells her he is trying to help Mr. Hollingsworth and Tony. "See, I'm not all bad," he cries. Marlena agrees and asks him for a dance. As they dance, Marlena tells John their date is going well and she is glad she accepted the date. When he questions whether she's thinking about the old John, she denies it. She is in the present! She grins while he tells her he thinks "the new him" is getting under her skin.
Nearby, Morgan thanks Tony for helping her father and gives him a kiss on the cheek. Anna witnesses it and Tony calls Morgan a nice kid. He tells her he's flattered that she'd try to make him jealous but tells her she already has him. Anna asks why she'd do that. She doesn't want to be second best. She leaves Tony confused, once again!
Morgan and her camera man, Mark, arrive at DiMera Advertising. Tony asks that Mark not get in the way and when he sees the sad look on Morgan's face, he asks her what's going on. She isn't sure she can discuss it but Tony asks her to consider him a friend and asks her to open up. She tells him she's upset about her parents and their divorce and says things have gotten worse. She asks if he knows what's going on with her father, but he has no idea, so she lets him know that he has been accused of taking a bribe. She gives him a history lesson on her family and says her mother comes from money and her parents didn't like her marrying Paul in the first place. Morgan's mother expects Paul to give child support and alimony, but Mrs. Hollingsworth is worth much more money. She loves her father but is really angry with him. Tony hugs her and gives her comfort. Kate wanders into the office just then and spies Tony holding Morgan and Mark taping them. Tony ushers Morgan to the ladies room and tells Kate Morgan's having family issues. He tells her to ignore the camera, and then flirts with her. He tells Kate how beautiful her eyes are but denies coming on to her. He says he appreciates beauty, considering he is in the advertising field. Morgan returns and Tony gives her the rest of the day off. Tony asks Mark to simply leave his camera in his office and they'll get back to things later. He assures him it's quite safe. Mark and Morgan leave and Kate and Tony discuss Morgan and her family. The camera is recording as Tony asks Kate out to dinner!
Anna arrives at Tony's office but he's not there. Curious, she watches the video that Mark took and is disgusted that Tony was hugging Morgan and complimenting Kate's eyes. She yells, "You bastard," when she hears and sees Tony ask Kate out to dinner. She murmurs that she feels like an idiot and is annoyed that Tony would take out an ex-hooker.
Meanwhile, Tony arrives at Anna's office, only to find her gone but the video tape still in the camera. He watches parts of it, skips through most, and finds out that Anna misses Tony. He ponders her words and calls Anna to find out what she's up to. She lies that she's at the salon. Tony calls her hair exquisite - even in the mornings before she has even run a brush through it. Anna starts to rant and asks if Kate's hair is exquisite or just her eyes. Tony's confused but Anna continues on. She hopes he and Kate will be happy together. She tells him to play his games with somebody else. She cries that she'll come out on top and hangs up before she storms out of the room.
Kate arrives at Tony's office and tells him she has decided to work with him and his company on her new project. He's thrilled with the news and Kate takes a call from Anna who wants to know which company she went with to market her new product line. Kate lets a letdown Anna know she has decided on Tony but she will consider using Anna for a secondary line that they can sell online and on television. She'll call when she's ready, much to Anna's disappointment.
In his office, Tony tells Kate that Anna turned him down when he invited her to work with him. Kate says Anna had some great designs and offers her a drink while they discuss his mock ups. Tony accidentally drops his wine on Kate's blouse and things don't look innocent when they're caught on tape, wiping it off when Morgan and Mark enter the room! Tony explains that he and Kate were celebrating working together. Philip arrives to see Kate and Morgan and Philip explain how they met. Mark films their shy and awkward meeting and Tony asks what Philip's doing there and comments, "Or are you here just to see my new intern?!" Philip is interested in hiring Tony to do an ad campaign for their shipping line. Tony is intrigued and comments that he will send Kate a proposal for her to send her goods abroad with Kiriakis shipping. He tells Morgan how good it was too see her and leaves. After everyone is gone, Morgan turns to her cameraman, Mark, and tells him she hates him!
Ethan and Morgan enter Tony's office with papers and proposals, ready to take a meeting until Anna shows. Tony asks Anna what he can do for her and she points at Ethan and says she wants him! Ethan is flustered and thinks she wants him for something other than work but Anna explains she only wants him for work. Tony offers to pay him more if he stays but Anna says money's no issue, until Ethan shows her his check for the week. Her eyes widen and she looks to Morgan to see if she can take her, instead. Tony yells that Morgan is his intern. Anna's intern, Stephanie is at the hospital, she explains because Bo Brady is sick. She explains Bo's having a partial pancreas surgery but tells him it's risky. She says she has never met her boss and has a lot of work to be done but can't very well ask Stephanie to leave the hospital during this time. She needs to get an account. She shows Tony her portfolio - some ideas for Kate Roberts that she drew on an art board. Tony's working on something as well for Kate and calls Anna's ideas nostalgic. Anna hopes he won't use her ideas. When she asks to see their rough concepts, Tony shows her an incredible mock up on his computer, done by the art department. She's clearly impressed and refuses to show him the rest of her sketches and thinks there is something said for sophistication and simplicity. She admits she could use help but Tony yells that she wanted to be on her own - didn't want his help! Anna argues that he shouldn't be throwing that in her face and the two call each other hard headed. She grabs a painting off his wall and smashes it over his head! Tony lets Ethan and Morgan leave and moves in on Anna. She becomes nervous and backs up. He says she's spoiled and he likes to spank spoiled little brats. Anna calls him callous and he retorts that she's childish. He moves in for a kiss and says he knows she wants him. Anna admits it! "I want you," she says with a giggle as he throws her to the sofa and unbuttons his jacket. The two make love until Ethan arrives, with a knock on the door. Anna and Tony scramble to put their clothes on and they feign an argument. Tony yells, "And let that be a message to you!"
