Rose and her cameraman prepare to cover the 13th Annual Miami Pet Dog Expo, both hoping to impress as they audition for new positions at the TV station. Dorothy and Sophia attend for moral support. What major incident happens at the dog show that Rose doesn't even report on?

Answer

A robbery. A man holds the attendees hostage at gunpoint and robs them.

Blanche: You didn't cover the robbery at all?

Rose: Was I wrong again? I mean, I could've covered the holdup, but it would've seemed like I was giving in to sensationalism. I'm a reporter, damn it. They sent me to cover a story, and that's what I did.

Sophia: I don't believe this. Rose! This was the opportunity of a lifetime. A one-in-a-million shot. How could—

Dorothy: How could...how could they not have given you the job, Rose? Oh, maybe the issue here is one of...oh God, what can we call it? Eh, editorial judgment.

Rose: Really? You think so?

Dorothy: Oh yes, Rose. Yes, I do. I guess it just isn't the story they wanted.

Blanche: Damn, you're good.

Rose: Thank you, Dorothy. That makes me feel so much better. And to tell you the truth, I'm still not ashamed of what I did today. I mean, if Deborah Norville stopped for every serious news story that happened around her, she wouldn't be where she is today!
