After Matt releases Erich from medical care, Karen suddenly realizes she'll no longer have a pretext for seeing Matt. Later, she flatly refuses Carolee's request that Erich spend Saturday afternoons with Steve and Stephanie. Cathy is thrilled when Steve confirms her pregnancy, but fails to agree with his assessment that Nick is happy being a bachelor. She also nixes Steve's suggestion of getting an abortion. Carolee spots an upset Cathy leaving Steve's office, and becomes upset herself after Steve avoids her questions about the reasons for Cathy's behavior. Maggie goes to see Matt, intending to tell him her plans, but their meeting is interrupted by an overseas call from one of Karen's colleagues in Berlin. After Matt and Maggie learn that Karen has lied, and the Berlin hospital is holding a job for her, Maggie heads straight to confront Karen.
