Cover Up: Mystery at the Super Bowl
After Stevie is fired from the show Kidsports, Susan Carol calls him and is crying, having said she would not do the show without him. Stevie convinces her to continue doing the show, at least for now. Before Susan Carol hangs up she says to Stevie, "I really do love you, you know." Stevie in response says, "I love you, too." The following Monday, after Stevie is dropped off at the hotel he is staying at by Sean McManus, Stevie puts his things in his room and goes to Bobby and Tamara's room and is greeted with a hug by Susan Carol, who is there to get away from the TV people at the hotel she is staying at. The next morning Stevie's comments about Jamie Whitsitt, the new co-host who took Stevie's place, Susan Carol told Stevie to go to hell. That evening, at 1:47 in the morning, Stevie is woken up by a call from Susan Carol, who says she is coming to his room. Susan Carol comes, and Stevie offers her something to drink. Susan Carol then tells Stevie what she was told by Doctor Snow at the party she had to be at with the USTV people and that the doctor was drunk. Susan Carol then apologizes to Stevie for not being very nice to him that morning. Susan Carol admits that she knew that even with how mad she was at him that morning that she had to come to Stevie with the information she was told by Doctor Snow, showing that Susan Carol only trusts Stevie when figuring out who she should tell about what she was told. Stevie and Susan Carol then spent some time researching HGH, and the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, because it relates to the fact that five of the Dreams offensive lineman tested positive for HGH on the blood test. Before Susan Carol leaves, Stevie takes his chance and kisses Susan Carol on the lips, with a few words before Susan Carol kisses Stevie on the lips.
