Season 2, Episode 15
9/10
Cooter marks a hilarious second season ender for "30 Rock"
15 May 2008
Warning: Spoilers
With this being the season finale written by creator/star Tina Fey, here's the synopsis in a nutshell: Jack, having taken a position with Homeland Security because of Guiess' coma and the aftermath in the last episode, calls Liz from D.C. and tells her he won't be back. Liz finds she's tested positive for pregnancy and has revealed to Jenna that Dennis is the father. Kenneth tells Pete about applying to be a page at the Beijing Olympics which Pete can relate to since he still resents then-President Carter for boycotting the Moscow one when he was practicing archery. "Peanut farmer!" Turns out the deadline is due today and not two weeks from now so Kenneth's nemesis page purposely gave him the wrong memo. Thankfully, Jenna helps with her DVD on the page's qualities. Back in D.C., Jack is mentoring a Cooter Burger (Matthew Broderick) the acting head of Homeland Security who keeps denying ceiling leaks and whose office has no pens. After his former receptionist Jonathan calls about Guiess saying something from his coma, Jack tries to quit but has to get himself fired so he asks for former love C.C.'s help. An item about a "Gay Bomb" might do the trick...Lots of other stuff happens here but let me just say this was a pretty hilarious way to end the strike-shortened second season of "30 Rock"! Loved seeing the return of Dennis and C.C. Plenty of fine visuals to accommodate the many witty lines thought up by Ms. Fey. The "Three Months Later" cliffhangers should be enough for anyone to savor the next season when "30 Rock" comes back for, once again, a full season. (unless a possible actors strike goes into effect after June 30...) Now about that "Gay Bomb"...
