Tommy was prepared to treat everyone himself, bringing up the idea of a night of mild madness at the nightclub with Rick and his team who came up with "How to Marry a Millionaire." However, his plan was disrupted by a call from Sean, the vice president of public relations.
In the end, Tommy could only have Rick apologize on his behalf to the employees below, changing the plan to a casual visit to the nightclub at their leisure, with the bill being covered by him, who couldn't make it in person.
Sean's tone on the phone was very rushed, only telling Tommy not to entertain tonight and to either wait at the company for his call or rush back in person. His exact words were:
"Tommy, we need to prepare to help a widow."
This one sentence got Tommy excited.
