Back at the hospital, Tracy wakes from his hallucination and begs Dr. Spaceman not to go through with the vasectomy. Luckily, Jack aborted the operation before it began ("If a patient's friend runs into the operating room and yells at you, you have to stop. It's the doctor's code."). Jack, who nixed his vasectomy also, looks forward to the day his luscious-locked children can play with Tracy's.
30 Rock. Lemon is nearly ready to admit defeat in her attempt to push Brian out of the apartment... until she sees Frank filling up his "sun tea" jars from the communal water cooler. Cut to that night, as she is filling up on fluid and crossing her legs like an about-to-burst first grader. She hears the door opening and starts to unzip her pants. Brian comes in and beholds the unholy sight with a look that can only be described as horror. The next morning, she runs jubilantly into the studio, announcing that she got the apartment. Jenna asks her how, and she tries to dance around the answer, but Frank is nearby. He's onto her. He tells her she's the disgusting one. Instead of using the system to stop global warming, she's used it to kick a gay cop out of his apartment. She shouts boisterously that she has no regrets. It's Manhattan real estate, after all. No rules -- like checking in at an Italian gelato parlor. She triumphantly tosses her tote toward the sky like Mary Tyler Moore. Which would have worked if not for the low ceilings.
Over in Tracy's dressing room, Tracy proudly hangs up his acrostic from Tracy Jr. Frank runs in, excited that Tracy can finally tell his sordid strip club story. Tracy vows never to tell the story now that he's having a daughter because the story is demeaning to women -- "especially if they had their boobies sneezed on by a tiger."
Outside in the hall, Kenneth praises a handyman for changing a standard light bulb to a more eco-friendly fluorescent. The handyman steps down from his ladder, and it's Al Gore. He starts expostulating about how the key to climate change is much more than just changed light bulbs, it's shifting policy. Kenneth seems a bit baffled as Gore makes his way down the hall. Gore gives a final proviso for Kenneth to contact his lawmakers and "recycle everything -- even jokes." Then he hears a whale in trouble and runs off, ripping off his clothes as he goes like a fumbling, formerly woodsman-esque Superman.
Later, Kenneth happily reports to Jack that TGS has reduced its carbon footprint. Jack says he, too, has played a part in the reduction. He's traded his exotic flowers for azaleas from Frank's window box. Yes, friends. Those would be the "sun tea" azaleas. Jack inhales the fragrant piss and encourages an anguished-looking Kenneth to do the same, as they are still "sprinkled with morning dew." Ever the faithful page, Kenneth reluctantly takes a big whiff.
