Molly McCoy, a young editor from Flash Magazine, approaches Mitch and tells him of his nomination as the Flash Bachelor of the Month, complete with a photo and video shoot. It turns out that C.J. nominated him. But Mitch has other concerns helping Newman and Donna catch a giant Portuguese Man-O-War jellyfish infesting the area after it stung a swimmer. Meanwhile, Stephanie and Tom are planning a small and simple wedding. However, Caroline believes a big wedding is the best and starts preparations. She is revealing the frustrations in her life after recently breaking up with Logan. Stephanie and Tom then decide to marry immediately. 

Mitch rescues Cassie Cole, a popular TV talk show hostess who invites him to appear on her show. While on the show, Mitch saves the other guest, Jay Leno, from choking, and he becomes an instant overnight celebrity. The conniving Neely and Donna plot to use Mitch's sudden fame for their profit, pretending to be his agent and manager. Meanwhile, a few months after Stephanie's death, Caroline and C.J. adopt a stray dog swimming in the ocean that leads them to the dead body of its drowned owner. Naming it "Annie," the dog is surprisingly neat, responds to commands, likes to swim in the ocean, is drawn to Mitch, and will only sleep in Stephanie's old bed. C.J. then suspects Annie possesses the reincarnated soul of Stephanie.
