Episode Report Card Michael Neal: B | 2 USERS: C YOU GRADE IT MILF Island
By Michael Neal | Season 2 | Episode 11 | Aired on 04.10.2008
Frank does the same to Lutz. He tells Lutz that the two need to form an alliance since they're the two biggest dirt bags in the office. Eventually they'll get blamed for it.
Downstairs all alone is Pete still stuck in a vending machine. He convinces himself that it's the shirt at fault and so slides it off, not unlike in foreplay with Paula one would assume. Still stuck though. "What?"
Kenneth is confused about the quote in the newspaper and shares this with Lemon. He knows Toofer would never use the word "poo," that Frank didn't say it because they were together all day and, oh yeah, he saw her say it while he was hidden in the elevator behind a cardboard cutout of ... an American Gladiator? Lemon had been frustrated by Jack's decision to send Tracy to Dubai and spills her frustration out on a handsome elevator buddy who turns out to be a reporter for the New York Post specializing in business gossip. Lemon pleads for Kenneth to keep this under his hat as 8th grade boys ride on the backs of MILFs who race each other along the beach on the TV set behind them. "But you're not supposed to lie," says Kenneth. "You apple-faced goon," says a frustrated Lemon. She begrudgingly agrees to tell Jack what happened but when she confronts him he share with her an involved story about his stuttering problem in school and having the Massachusetts Board of Education label him -- out comes the paperwork as proof -- "a class A moron." Jack was sent to a special needs class after that, forced to sweep sawdust in a boiler room. Sure he went on to graduate Harvard and now occupies a major position at GE but the sting of those words in the newspaper have bubbled up long forgotten about pain. Lemon tells him that she's narrowed the quote culprit down to Toofer or Frank.
Pete is still, still stuck and eyes the phone on the other side of the room from him. He throws his right shoe and knocks the receiver off the hook. He just needs four numbers that will call anybody in the building for help. He throws his wallet at the buttons. Score! That's one number. He throws his watch. Score! Two. He throws his other shoe. Scores again! One more number Pete baby and you and I are moving on to the next scene. He throws his wedding ring. Score! The phone rings ... "Hello you've reached Peter Hornberger at TGS. Please leave a message." Pete bellows a mighty wail of disgust.
The staff is acting hot and bothered in the lobby outside Jack's office. They start yelling at each other from the heat of the room. So much so that Kenneth covers his ears. Did I mention that Human Giant's Rob Huebel is playing MILF Island's Jeff Probst role? As host he asks MILF Deborah (not Debor-ah) about the hardest part of being on MILF Island. Her answer carries as a voice-over through the rest of the scene. Her answer is the physical challenges. Being tired, hungry, and wanting to go home then reaching inside to find strength you didn't even know you had. As she says this we see Pete dragging the vending machine a few inches across the floor then, in the most terrifying moment in the history of 30 Rock not involving Buck Henry and sexual innuendo the vending machine begins to tip over onto him. Host Huebel goes on to explain that either Deb-o-rah or Debor-ah will be going home and it will be revealed ... after three more breaks! Gotta love Huebel.
