Synopsis:

Spoiler:
AVERY (GUEST STAR ELIZABETH BANKS, "Man on a Ledge") FINALLY RETURNS HOME FROM NORTH KOREA, BUT JACK (ALEC BALDWIN) QUESTIONS HER FIDELITY OVERSEAS. Jack (Baldwin) suspects Avery is hiding something when she is seemingly unmoved by news of his indiscretions. Meanwhile, Liz (Tina Fey) embraces her role as breadwinner much to Criss's (James Marsden) chagrin. Tracy (Tracy Morgan) and Kenneth (Jack McBrayer) try to help Jenna (Jane Krakowski) find a sponsor for her upcoming wedding.


Episode 21 of 22

In case you didn't read the NBC thread, this was renewed for a 13 episode final season.

I enjoyed this episode, from the mind games between Jack & Avery to the basketball scene with Kim Jung Il.

I loved this item on the Crisspoints board, under "Chores": "Referring to me as Khaleesi"

The whole board can be seen here: http://www.nbc.com/30-rock/photos/cr...75#item=242876

Loved how at the every holiday party there was a guy dressed as Leap Day William. I noticed him right away and burst out laughing, needed to rewind it to show him to my gf

One of the better shows of the season and good bounce back from last week.

The Crisspoints thing was hilarious.

I love that you need more Crisspoints for the share food reward than the daytime sex reward.

Just 13 episodes?? I know NBC is trying a new thing, but one would think that they would give this show a full season order for its final season.

I agree with those who thought this was one of the better episodes this season. I was laughing a lot.

I still find the best 30 Rock episode to be MUCH better than anything the much more highly rated Big Bang Theory serves up.

I looked for a shoe web site and there was one.
Great episode and Margaret Cho was hilarious.

Word and the worst 30 rock shows are still better than the Middle and whatever sitcoms that should have aired in the 90's on ABC.

Just me but I won't watch a show with a laugh track.


I hope 30 Rock gets more shows and extended since it looks like it might start in Sept and some or all of the new shows might bomb.
