30 Rock Finale Recap Kidney Now 2009: Season Finale

30 Rock Finale Recap Kidney Now

In the season finale of , we pick up last week’s kidney cliffhanger with Jack feeling some sort of obligation to help the man
he admits he does not even know for sure is his dad. He goes to Liz to ask her opinion, stating that the kind of hopes he’s not even a match. Well, if anyone can fudge results of a compatability test, it should be Dr. Leo Spaceman, who mixed up the forms and documented that Jack would be giving his professor dad the kidney. Hell, he probably won’t even need to fudge anything I’m sure he makes lab mistakes all the time. Jack’s dad stops by his office to tell him he doesn’t really want a kidney, just a chance to make up for lost time (especially if he doesn’t have much time left). Jack invites him to a Yankees game, and his dad is glad they have baseball in common because he just so happens to have one (a ball) in his bag right now. He wants Jack to have it, but he says he can’t accept, and they toss it back and forth in an odd game of father-son catch about forty years too late. It gets him thinking that he really does want to help this guy, and when Dr. Spaceman announces he’s not a batch to be a donor, that works out even better. Now he can come up with a way to manipulate someone else to help. Jenna suggests a star-studded concert, like when she needed to help “old gays.” And so “Kidney Now” is born. Image © NBC Liz has been asked to appear back on the Fake Tyra show as a sort-of relationship guru, which is funny and sad all at the same time, but Jack tells her to go for it because life is short, and really TGS only has about two more years left in it. I hope that’s not true for the show outside of the show: 30 Rock! I want to see this baby hit double digits! But as Jack mentions, it’s not Wings. Pete and Tracy’s wives (yes, Sherri Shepherd returns!) come to Liz for advice, too, and at first she resists because she knows both them and their husbands and finds it might be a breach of– oh but the gossip is too juicy, and her hesitation from the saucy “S.I.D.D (Shut. It Down. Dealbreaker)” is short-lived. Even Jenna and Cerie get in on the action, and soon Liz’ office is full of women cheering for her like they would normally only do for Oprah. Liz is off to meet a publisher about a “Dealbreaker” book when Pete and Tracy confront her for ruining their relationships with their wives. Pete doesn’t want to go on the family vacation because it’s to a working farm, where he would have to guide the bull during mating season. And Tracy only got that hotel room so he can go to the bathroom in peace and quiet. They both tell her she doesn’t know what she’s talking about and can’t go around telling people how to run their relationships, but she’s a woman on a mission and can’t believe what a year it’s been. “What are you talking about It’s only May,” Jack points out. Best lines of the night: Jack: “Since Guiliani left it’s gotten really hard to harvest hobo organs.”
Liz: “You’re fiance’s gay. Look at him look at you: classic case of fruit-blindness.”
