Not in the credits yet, but did anyone else notice [Diane Neal](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1011812/), IMO the hottest of the ADAs from Law & Order: SVU, as one of the angry girls at the reunion? I support her appearing on TV as much as possible.

Is _that_ who that was? I was racking my brain, and my DVR stopped before the credits. I agree, quite the fox.

PS I also learned that apparently Jenna was educated on a boat.

Dude, it was SUPPOSED to be lame! C’mon, Kenneth do ing lame 80s elevator schtick and thems what were professional comedians getting pissed that his totally lame material was getting more laughs than their “cutting edge” material did? Juxtaposed against Lemon’s realization that here cutting remarks from high school did more damage than she imagined? COMPLETELY Postmodern!

And I admit that I laughed because I think that Postmodernism is a crock.

Nice episode indeed. Loved the line in the thread title.

But the writers were nowhere to be seen. They are still in the opening credits. Bring back the writers!

The “this is your son” bit was cliched though.

The only reason for still having Jordan around is because his posse is funny. And that is sad.

I agree with you that it was a bit pedestrian for this show. I was hoping and expecting that Janel Moloney’s character would have admitted to drowning the real Larry in the lake.

Actually, that would have been a pretty funny ending.
