Betsy, who is stubborn and unyielding, decided to make a big reform in the program group. So she decided to invite legendary show host Mike Pomeroy at any cost. But Mike, who has a tough personality and has a lot of criticism of the current news programs, naturally refuses to accept it.

Morning Glory quotes

  • Mike Pomeroy: Nobody really cares that I can do this job, but... but I can. I wanted you to see that.

    Becky Fuller: That was a great story, Mike. That was... that was better than a great story, that was great television. I mean, that was bran with a donut. A bran donut.

    Mike Pomeroy: I've got a grandkid. Did you know that? Alexander. I haven't seen him since I got fired. I was embarrassed... after all I'd accomplished. And then to... come back to the news... this way. The truth is, I'd... I'd screwed up with my kids way before I got canned. Anyway, I was never at home and... when I was, I took every phone call, watching TV out of the corner of my eye. Why am I telling you this? You're worse than I am. You'd sleep at the office if you could. Let me tell you how it turns out. You end up with... with nothing. Nothing. Which is... which is what I had. 'Till you came along.

    Becky Fuller: Wait a second. Did you just say something nice to me?

    Mike Pomeroy: I told you I could banter.

  • Becky's Mom: Did you get any severance?

    Becky Fuller: Uh... there were some budgetary cuts last year, so they weren't really offering. But I have feelers out. Lots.

    Becky's Mom: Yeah, great. Honey, you think "The Today Show" is gonna call you up and hand you a job, and you have since you were eight, and it's not gonna happen.

    Becky Fuller: I don't... I know that, I do. I get it.

    Becky's Mom: This is partly my fault. I... I let your father get your hopes up. He was not a happy person, let's face it. When he saw you aim high, he started to feel better about himself, so I never said anything.

    Becky Fuller: What are you saying?

    Becky's Mom: You had a dream, you know? Great. When you were eight, it was adorable. When you were 18, it was inspiring. At 28, it's officially embarrassing. And I just want you to stop before we get to "heartbreaking".
