Kate struggled with balancing being a bona fide workaholic and a mom simultaneously. The PR executive didn't know how to delegate.

In the finale, she rejects every line of Rosie's (Nikki Duval) closing speech for the official PR event for Rebecca's (Elise Bauman) book exposé on multi-level marketing scam companies.

Once again, cold reality hits Kate at the release event. Mrs. Sheffield (Jayne Eastwood) attends, even though her company Goldie is being named and shamed in the book.

Kate is gobsmacked when Mrs. Sheffield isn't bothered by the fact that her own daughter is speaking out about Goldie at the PR event. "It's a good thing I have other daughters!" Mrs. Sheffield says, scoffing. She says Kate can judge her all she wants, but she's just looking in a mirror.

Although Kate had initially convinced Sloane (Enuka Okuma) to let her do the closing speech, Kate realized how controlling she was being. She let Rosie give her speech instead.

She leaves the event so she can see Nathan Jr. (Kyle Breitkopf) before he heads off to his prom. Kate lets Nathan know that she's totally fine with him wanting to live with his aunt. She just wants him to be happy.
