PICSPAM: 30 ROCK [3x03]  
Sorry this has come a little late, Photobucket was being a real stick in the mud. I have to say, I didn't enjoy this episode as much as the last two, but I think it's because of my limited (or non-existent to be totally honest) knowledge of Night Court. Nonetheless, still a fabulous episode in which top moments were abound.

OH! And if you haven't caught up on the last two episodes (OMG YOU BETCH), here's a long, soundless recap:

3x01: Do-Over
3x02: Believe in the Stars



TOP MOMENTS.

(basically the whole show)





Kenneth: Ms. Lemon, it’s me, Kenneth Parcell, the page. You probably didn’t recognize me in this new page uniform.
Liz: I recognized you, Kenneth.
Kenneth: The old uniforms were timeless, practical, sexy. But, um, this...This is an outrage! You need to make them go back to the old uniforms.
Liz: I don’t have that kind of authority.
Kenneth: Then what do you do?!




Liz: Hey, I just got a call from security.
Jenna: That’s ridiculous! Why would I steal a file from personnel?
Liz: What? No. Claire is in the lobby.
Jenna: Claire Harper? From Chicago?
Liz: Yup. Fun, crazy Claire.
Jenna: Oh man! Do you remember the night we all danced in that open fire hydrant?
Liz: Yeah. Her roof parties?
Jenna: Karaoke in Boystown.
Liz: The all night scavenger hunts.
Jenna: Do you remember when we crashed that Polish wedding?
Liz: ...Yeah she’s exhausting.
Jenna: Oh I know! She’s gonna make us buy more of her homemade jewelry. Birds always attack me when I wear it.




[Kenneth starts to jump excitedly with the girls before breaking into tears]

OMG he's so adorable.




Jack: Welcome to New York. Lets see, we’re using credit cards, and cabs, all the galleries have moved to Chelsea, and we’re off cupcakes and back to doughnuts.




Tracy: What’s wrong, Ken? You’ve got wife eyes.
Kenneth: I’m just sad sir. I’ve worn this old jacked since 19...and now they’ve just thrown it away.
Tracy: Is there nothing sacred? Have we lost our moral center? It just makes me want to pee on someone.
Kenneth: I appreciate that sir. But rules are rules. I’m just going to have to live with it.
Tracy: I hate to see you like this Ken-Dog. It’s like an owl without a graduation cap; heartbreaking! So what can I buy you to make you happy?

------

Kenneth: Money can’t buy a sunset or a child’s smile, or a satisfying finale to the hit TV show ‘Night Court.’
Tracy: Court? At Night? I’m already laughing! Tell me more!




Claire: Oh hey Liz. Jack was just giving me direction to the...F-Train.

-------

Liz: Back in Chicago I saw her take powerful men down. It didn’t matter if it was Scotty Pippin, or the drummer for the Bodeens, or someone else’s boyfriend who ran a small but prestigious clowning academy.
Jack: Whose boyfriend? [Liz makes a face]

-------

Jack: Having known Claire for a very enjoyable twenty minutes and you for what feels like infinity, I’m going to go with Claire on this one.




Tracy: Ready for your big surprise?
Kenneth: Yes sir! Gosh, last time I was blind folded I had to play piano at that weird masquerade party.
Tracy: Ta-da!
Kenneth: [Squeels] Some of the cast of ‘Night Court’!

-------

Markie: Oh bless your heart. Do you like race cars?
Kenneth: I do!

-------

Kenneth: First I find a quarter this morning...
Charlies: Uh...I lost a quarter earlier...




Jack: To Mi-ou. May tonight’s fundraiser for your fund raising foundation be as successful as last weeks cocktail reception for your rehab center.
Claire: Jack’s just being modest. He won’t tell you, but I will. Today is Jack’s birthday! Hit it boys! [Breaks into song] Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Jackie-bear. Happy birthday to him.

-------

Jack: How did you get in here first of all? And it’s not even my birthday!
Claire: I know isn’t it funny?! What? Oh come on are you mad?
Jack: This is highly inappropriate. I’m going to have to ask you to leave!
Claire: Hey! If I kill myself, it is all your fault! [Crowd gasps] [Jack starts to fake laugh and summons orchestra to start playing]




Liz: Did she do sexy birthday or mannequin who comes to life?
Jack: Sexy birthday. Thank god!

-------

Jack: I’ve got to get out of this. What do other guys do?
Liz: Well, one guy died. Scotty Pippin requested a trade to Houston.
Jack: Houston’s too humid. What about this dying thing?

-------

Liz: Where is she now?
Jack: Chained to the radiator in our hotel room. It was her idea. She’s an amazing woman.




Tracy: My boy, Ken has written a masterpiece. And trust me, I use that word a lot!

-------

Markie: You always thought that you were better for me because you were nominated for Emmys. Well I would have been nominated too, but I was just too hot to be taken seriously!
Harry: Well that wouldn’t be a problem now, would it?
Charles: Uh huh. Court is adjourned.
Kenneth: This is worse than the original finale! What are we going to do?
Tracy: I don’t know, Ken. This is bad. I wish this were an episode of ‘Night Court’ because then there would be some big joke right now. [Long awkward pause]




Tracy: My boy Kenneth, is going through some tough times. They’re making him wear a coat that’s different than his other coat.




Jack: [Answers phone] Lemon?
Liz: Jack! She’s in your house!
Jack: Don’t be ridiculous. The alarm is...[Turns around to find Claire standing there in lingerie]
Claire: I made you a white pizza and a pot roast. I just think you’re, so amazing. Look at me playing house! My god you must think I’m out of my mind! Do you? You just looked away when I said that. I saw you. [Throws away tray] Kiss me, I know your lips will be honest! [Rips off his tie, kisses him]
Jack: Lemon I gotta call you back.
Liz: No!




Jack: Wait, maybe Claire’s right. If we had a baby together things would calm down.




Liz: I’m deleting you from my phone! What? Password!?




Harry: Hey are you with network? How about if Heroes had a new character and his super power was like close up magic.
Liz: What? No. Oh big fan, by the way.




Kenneth: Can I say something?
Liz: Absolutely not.
Kenneth: The only crime any of us are guilty of is caring for one another: Mr. Jordan who tried to cheer me up, These wonderful actors who tried to make a young man’s dream come true. If there’s a law against friendship, then lock me up. But if there isn’t, then the show must go onward!
Tracy: Ken! You did it! You changed her mind!
Liz: No! No he didn’t! Stop group hugging! Who does that?! [Hits Judge's stick]




Jack: Isn’t this great. We’re together. We’re in line to get into the club. I have my glow stick.
Claire: Uh huh. Yeah and there’s no more Liz trying to keep us apart. No more drama. No more sneaking around, recording our intimate moments and leaving them for Liz on her voicemail.
Jack: What?!
Claire: You know what! I don’t even know what this is any more! Are we boring? Are we some sexless couple that sits in silence at a fish place on a Sunday night at 5:00? Cause if we are, I’ll kill myself!

------

Claire: Guy in the really cool cool hat has a gun!
Jack: Crazy putty! [Runs away]




Harry: I herby declare the new page uniforms at NBC illegal!
Tracy: I added that. I went upstairs and told them that if they don’t bring back the old uniforms, I refuse to play the part of Mac in Universals upcoming ‘Night Court’ movie.
Charles: What’s that now?




[Kenneth punches air and freezes]

Tracy: Are you okay?




Jack: Lemon, the real night court is not at all like that TV show. Do you remember that show?
Liz: I do.
Jack: The hookers are not funny. There are a lot more sickly homeless people and college students. Thank you for bailing me out, Claire threw my wallet down a storm drain. Lemon I'm sorry...
Liz: Look, I'm just glad your okay.
Jack: Thank you for answering your phone.
Liz: I don't know how to decline a call. [Punches Jack in arm]
Jack: Claire used to punch me in the face.
Liz: Ahh!
Jack: Lemon I'm done. I swear. Try this on. [Puts Claire's hat on his head] That's a good look for you. [Liz laughs]


>>>>>OKAY, HERE WE GO!<<<<<


TOP 5 6 MOMENTS.


six.




Jenna: Well well well, a ‘Night Court’ reunion. Funny how I wasn’t invited. Or did you forget about my three episode arc as public defender Sparky Monroe.
Harry: No, we remember, Jenna. You were the werewolf lawyer.
[Flashback]
Jenna: I could prove my client is innocent. If only it weren’t a full mooooon!
[End flashback]
Harry: You made us jump the shark. You’re the reason we didn’t have a 10th season.
Markie: I had just bought my second home when they brought that idiot werewolf lawyer in.
Jenna: Uh, that idiot werewolf paid for my hand reduction surgery ok?

------

Jenna: Kenneth, I can’t believe you’re such a ‘Night Court’ owner and didn’t know I played the werewolf lawyer.
Kenneth: I knew...
Jenna: Very well, I can take a hint. But you haven’t seen the last of Sparky Monroe!





five.




Jack: Up or down ladies?
Liz: Neither, we’re waiting for our old roommate. She’s like a human Macarena - something everyone did at parties in 1996.
Jack: Mi-Ou.
Liz: You’re right, that was harsh.
Jack: No, Mi-Ou. She owns the largest alternative energy company in Asia. So as part of our Green Initiative were doing a reality show about her quest to find a boyfriend.




four.




Liz: Jack has something he’d like to tell you.
Claire: Oh.
Jack: I do. [In agony] I’d like to suck that ring right off your toe. [Turns away] Just got to hack it.
Claire: Oh please stop. Don’t make that angry Muppet face at him.

------

Claire: ...You were trying to keep me away from Jack and you almost fooled me. But then I remembered something - you don't like to have fun. And now your plan has backfired and Jack is seeing the manipulative you. The single white female thing that you have with me.
Liz: I don’t have a single white female thing with you.
Claire: Honey, you moved into my building. You wore chokers because I wore chokers.
Jack: I’d like to choke her.
Claire: Yes. You dated that clown, Joel Suchecky.
Liz: First! I dated him first, Claire. And he wasn’t that clown, he was THE head clowning instructor.

------

Claire: That’s what I’m saying. We all want what’s best for Jack. So why don’t we just get this three way on!
Liz: No!
Jack: No! Right, I mean that's a bad idea right? [Liz tilts her head at him]
Claire: Alright. Well I tried to be the adult. And if only one gets to have him, I'm afraid it's going to be me.





three.




Liz: I was at this club last week… called Chili’s...and I met this smoking guy. He was just raw. [Frank makes a disgusted face]
Claire: Tell me everything.
Liz: I’m going to. He was wearing this shirt...and I could totally see his nips. He was very muscular.
Claire: Did you go home with him?
Liz: Yes...to his loft, where he gave me the "business".

-------

Cerie: You guys should go to Aquarium. It’s this new night club and all the women are in a glass room in the center of the dance floor. And all the guys just watch and feed them.
Claire: That sounds so hot!
Liz: Yeah, thank you Cerie, that’s very helpful.




two.




Liz: Did you see our shout out in Variety? They called us a comedy show!
Jack: Lemon I ran into your friend Claire in the elevator...she is very pretty.
Liz: Nononono, she's nuts when it comes to guys. We had a name for her back in Chicago...it's ah to rude to say out loud. [Writes on magazine]
Jack: [Reads] Crazy putty?
Liz: No.
Jack: OH!
Liz: She’s psycho. She is fatal attraction She is staunchly in favor of Coco Puffs. Do not sleep with her.
Jack: I wish you had told me that about an hour ago. [Claire comes out of bathroom]




one.




Jenna: Why did you leave? I think those Persian guys wanted us to make out together.
Liz: I’m waiting for Claire. She texted me like an hour ago and said she’s getting on the F-Train. Oh no!


I really wasn't sure about the top top moments this time, so I based it on 'laughs per moment'. :P So I welcome your suggestions! :D

FIN.

HEE! Definitely slightly worse than the previous too, but still funny though.

I like Liz's angry muppet face. It's adorable. Also, someone should write a fic where Jack gets into a threeway with Claire and Liz. With Claire feeling left out.
gemma.: Liz [30R] :: Bad Day[info]gemmi_joo on November 19th, 2008 05:23 am (UTC)
It was the Night Court thing I think, I was like "Who cares!" Haha.

It was so adorable! I had to capture it. :P OMG yes! That idea sounds a.w.e.s.o.m.e. And Jack and Liz can get really into it. Mmmhmm.
mitzi[info]i_said_boourns on November 18th, 2008 07:14 am (UTC)
YAAAAAAY!!

I loved Jack's crazy hat. And even though this was my least favorite ep so far, it was still hilarious.
gemma.: Jack/Liz [30R] :: Colour Me In[info]gemmi_joo on November 19th, 2008 05:24 am (UTC)
:D!!!!!!!

When he came into the room with it on, I literally screamed at the hilarity. :P
here you kvetch.: {life} fake plastic trees[info]intodelirium on November 18th, 2008 03:25 pm (UTC)
I didn't find it too funny either. maybe it's Jen A's unbelievable acting. I just think she overplayed it... and why does she always get this crazy lover role anyway?

the Night Court thing was weird. I don't get the references =/
gemma.: Tina & Alec :: Smell That Hair[info]gemmi_joo on November 19th, 2008 05:26 am (UTC)
I always think she overplays her roles, and the fact that I'm Team Jolie, haha. Maybe always getting the crazy lover role is telling us something? :P

Haha, neither. Oh well, I'm sure next week's is going to awesome with Steve Martin.
Katherine: Tina - Emmys[info]kit_kat1990 on November 18th, 2008 07:42 pm (UTC)
Loved this :)
Jack in the hat cracked me up way more than it should have done, it was just so so funny. And Liz's hair when they were outside the club I mean what on earth lol!

I loved #3 as well.
And #5 made me laugh a lot, probably because I didn't expect it at all but then I wondered why I didn't see it coming because it was so 30 rock!

Also loved Kenneth punching the air and Tracy "are you okay?" LOL.

gemma.: Jack/Liz [30R] :: Duke & Dorothy[info]gemmi_joo on November 19th, 2008 08:17 am (UTC)
Thanks! I laughed so hard too, and oh God her hair was hilariously weird!

It was SO 30 Rock! :P

Aw, he's so adorable, haha.
Mii: aeris[info]athena2483 on November 18th, 2008 08:53 pm (UTC)
Yay for more 30 Rock happiness at work! I love that you do this. Okay so yeah I didn't like this episode quite as much as the others so far but that's probably just because I am kind of always annoyed by Jennifer Aniston.

My favorite line: "Tracy: My boy Kenneth, is going through some tough times. They’re making him wear a coat that’s different than his other coat." BWAHAHAHAHAHA
gemma.: Elizabeth [P&P] :: Expectations[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:38 am (UTC)
Aw, I'm glad it makes you happy and gives a bit of relief from your work. :D

Oh God, me too, I can't stand her, she justs seems like the biggest bitch and a really, really needy person, haha. Team Angelina! :P

That was an awesome line, and the guy's face - "Who the hell are these weirdos?"
under the blue sky.[info]gregorypeck on November 18th, 2008 11:00 pm (UTC)
yeah, didn't like this episode as much. still funny though.
gemma.: Italy :: I'll Go Any Day[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:39 am (UTC)
I don't think 30 Rock will ever not be funny. :P
Cec: 30 Rock - Jack & Liz7[info]cecism on November 19th, 2008 01:14 am (UTC)
This picspam is timeless, practical and sexy.

I still completely love "She's like a human Macarena". Tracy's glasses. Jenna's ears. Jack's hat. Putting said hat on Liz's head. Liz's phone TOTALLY NOT WANTING HER TO DELETE HIS NUMBER. (Technology is smart like that.)
gemma.: Liz [30R] :: Lobster Tale[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:42 am (UTC)
Oh you know all the right things to say Cec. ;)

Haha. me too, the way she comes up with these lines. Yeah, what was with his glasses?! You could totally tell he was not reading through them, I suppose it was smart!Tracy. Aw, when he put the hat on her head I ah...awwwed. :P Haha, I'm glad the phone deleting thing was this week because it was over something silly.

Only one and half days until Rockerfeller Friday!!!
Urgle Grue: The Office - Jenna Fischer: Pam[info]spacedudey on November 19th, 2008 01:33 am (UTC)
Not the best episode, but there were some hilarious moments in it. I enjoyed the picspam very much! :)
gemma.: Michael [TO] :: Good With The Babies[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:42 am (UTC)
Definately. :) Thank you!!
undesirable number one: 30 Rock: Jack is smirking[info]elizabethisboss on November 19th, 2008 01:51 am (UTC)
I love you for doing these! I always look forward to it after I watch an episode. Awesome!
gemma.: Jack & Liz :: Weather Machine Incident[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:43 am (UTC)
Aw, thank you. I had it ready by Monday but both PB and IS were being bitches so I'll have it earlier for next week. :)
savingpeople: 30Rock/LizMagazine[info]savingpeople on November 19th, 2008 03:13 am (UTC)
Kenneth being super excited and turning into a puddle of sad outside the elevator makes me LOL.

Thanks for posting this! I'm glad to see this episode get some love because online, all I kept seeing was "I didn't like this one because I don't like Jennifer Aniston and she sucks" when really? I thought it was a pretty hilarious bit of TV.

I've watched it several times now (*has no life*) and I still crack up about it.

Thanks for sharing your top moments for putting this whole entry together!
gemma.: Jack/Liz [30R] :: Duke & Dorothy[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:45 am (UTC)
It's such a Kenneth thing to do, haha. :P

You're most welcome! She does annoy me, but she was quite good in this episode I have to say. She fit the role perfectly.

Oh I'm on holidays so yeah, the last three episodes have been on constant repeat haha. *joins the 'has no life club'*

Thank you for taking a look! :)
menagers[info]menagers on November 19th, 2008 06:28 am (UTC)
Thankyou for doing these, I always get a good laugh out of them. Well done on making Jen look silly with the hair flicking! One thing (and I may be wrong), but doesn't Jack just agree and say "I like a choker" rather than "I'd like to choke her"? Maybe I'm just projecting my desire not to hear him say that about Liz!
gemma.: Jude [INT] :: Praise It[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 12:54 am (UTC)
You're most welcome! I had fun doing them. :)

Oh, I'm not sure, I can't tell because of Alec's "husky" voice. I'll have a listen to it loud when I get home. Thank you for picking that up. I just type what ever I hear, haha, because they speak at a million miles per hour. :P
courtney_mudie7: mean girls: tina fey[info]courtney_mudie7 on November 19th, 2008 10:42 am (UTC)
i have NO idea what the hell night court is/was. i thought it was just some tv show they made up for the show.

Lmao. it was still a relatively good show regaurdless.

i love your top moments. hee hee.. i have a new code now.. "the f-train" LMAO!

30rock FTW
gemma.: Italy :: World Cup[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 09:12 am (UTC)
Haha, neither. I though exactly the same. :P

I am SO using the f-train for appropriate moments fron now on!!

Indeed!
Nicole: jaaack[info]theinsideher on November 19th, 2008 12:47 pm (UTC)
Yay picspam~! :D

Crazy putty sounds pretty funny but am I supposed to get something about it? XD *feels lame*
gemma.: Jenna [30R] :: Freak Out[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 09:13 am (UTC)
:D!!!

Well I couldn't find an actual definition of it (I even tried Urban Dictionary!) but I believe it's meant to insinuate that she's crazy dumb. Basically the wrong mix of person. But it sounds funny! :P
menagers[info]menagers on November 20th, 2008 11:14 am (UTC)
As she wrote it down and then Jack misread her hand-writing, I assumed it was "crazy pussy". Ack! if that's nowhere near right!
then start your engines: [mov] cate - woof woof[info]aetenae on November 19th, 2008 05:48 pm (UTC)
It wasn't my favorite of this season. Actually, to be frank, I didn't like it.
I was kind of bored. Maybe it was Jen Aniston, I don't know. She looked like she was trying too hard. Anyway, maybe I'm biased because I'm Team Jolie and I don't like Jen's acting (on Friends my favorite was Monica)

Edited at 2008-11-19 05:48 pm (UTC)
gemma.: Cate :: Black On White[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 09:15 am (UTC)
Yeah, I'm not a fan of Jennifer. :\ Oh, I'm defs Team Angelina! I've watched about ten full episodes of Friends in my life, haha.
Abi[info]gayfortinafey on November 19th, 2008 08:07 pm (UTC)
I have to say, I loved this episode.
I particularly loved Kenneth. Because that big picture of him? The one wit his face all screwed up? ZOMG HELLO FANGUY! XD I am totally like that when I am flailing.

And DAMN! That Night Court woman? HOT MUCH! XD

And I just LOVE Jack in that hat!

Thanks for this! XD
gemma.: Tina & Alec :: Smell That Hair[info]gemmi_joo on November 20th, 2008 09:16 am (UTC)
Haha, he was spot on with that face. :P

Yeah, I've seen her before but I'm not sure where because I never watched Night Court, possibly a movie or something. But she has aged well.

He was adorable in his Mad Hatters hat, indeed.

You're most welcome!
Stacey[info]lesaubergines on November 21st, 2008 12:16 am (UTC)
Great post!
I love the pic of Liz's hair. I laughed forever when I saw it.
