Short summary
Miles decides to bring back Stuart, an original anchor, for the 17th anniversary show unaware Murphy, Frank, and Jim had him fired. Once Stuart arrives his annoying habits resurface, leading Murphy to make a startling on air announcement.
The title comes from the historical "Fifth Beatle," based on the original band member, Pete Best, who began with The Beatles (but was replaced by Ringo Star). As a sly nod, the character is named Stuart Best.
