Weren’t they other two Jesus and Santa Claus (with a gun)? I thought the implied things they were planning to do to Kenneth funnier than anything they could have actually put on screen. ---

The joke was that things were going to get even crazier, but Pete put a stop to it. It would have been hard to come up with a joke that would have been as funny as Frank and Toofer getting out of that dumpster in costume. ---

I’m a little confused. I didn’t enjoy the episode much but everyone I talked to did. It seemed flat and phoned in to me. I also don’t get why Jack, with his infinite connections, can’t seem to get his wife back. Is she (in real life) doing another show so she can’t be on 30 Rock? I am, however, very excited for mystery man. ---

She’s married to Kim Jong Un. I don’t see where connections would help. (the actress is in several upcoming movies this year, which I assume is the real reason they basically “disappeared” her). ---

Well she’s “married” to Kim Jong Un but she’s also actually married to Jack. I mean it’s a stretch that if journalists are freed by government officials pulling some strings that Jack’s wife couldn’t be freed (but your last sentence is probably the real reason anyways). ---

Was her marriage forced? I though she was detained against her will originally but her marriage to Kim was voluntary. In anycase, I suspect its a lot harder to get a prisoner out of N. Korea if they’ve been forced to marry the dictator then otherwise. (checking wikipedia, it says she was forcibly married, so I guess I remembered incorrectly) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/30-rock-season-six-tonight/609280.md?page=2)
