Tracy and Kenneth hand out the shooting scripts for the new Night Court finale to the three players. Markie has on a wedding dress; Harry and Mac have on tuxedos. Kenneth thanks them for "finally giving America what it wants: a reunion of Friends... from Night Court. Markie thanks her once and present cast mates and laments that John Larroquette could not be here along with us all. Harry agrees, expressing the regret on John's behalf. "You two stay in touch?" snaps Markie. Soon, she and Harry are having it out over Emmy nominations, and they both storm off set.
Lemon finds Claire selling hats to Frank. She tries to make plans for tonight but Claire wants to get together with Jack. Lemon talks her out of it by detailing her Silk Stalking night out at a Chili's one evening. Claire decides she'll blow off Jack, and then Cerie recommends they go to a night club called Aquarium, where all the women stay in a glass room at the center of the dance floor and all the guys watch and feed them. Hate to get all Metromix on Cerie, but that sounds more like downtown Moscow than downtown Manhattan.
Tracy finds Harry in his dressing room, soaking his regret in a half-empty bottle. Tracy has really taken to the directorial role and talks with a perpetual neck hang and his glasses resting on the tip of his nose. He tells Harry to put away his past differences and serve a greater cause in the name of Kenneth. "They're trying to make him wear a coat that's different than his other coat." He reunites Harry and Markie in the hallway. They make up and agree to do the fake wedding and get the money they're owed. The people in the hallway clap approvingly but not at the TV Land reunion. Cerie just walked by in a skirt and high socks.
Lemon is looking good outside of Aquarium. She's waiting for Claire when Jenna finds her. "She texted me an hour ago. She said she was getting on the F train." A bulb flashes and she remembers the dirty double-entendre 'the F train' has come to mean between Claire and Jack. Follow? Let's put it this way, if Duke Ellington switched letters and sang "Take the F train" it would be a song about doing it with Claire. Sexually. Lemon calls Jack. "She's in your house." Jack turns around to find Claire in lingerie and an apron holding a tray of carb-based food. "You must think I'm out of my mind. Do you? You just looked away when I said that." She throws the food to the side grabs Jack and kisses him. "I know your lips will be honest."
