Dana and Isaac are upset when the network not only plans to cut back their Olympic coverage substantially, but may make more cuts across the board. The staff is doing both their regular show and the west coast update, and in between shows, Dan and Jeremy organize a Seder for Passover. Casey and Dan finally make up after their fight.
!!This episode contains examples of:
* AsTheGoodBookSays: At least until Jeremy rewrites it:
-->'''Isaac:''' (''reading from his script'') "For God then looked down at his lineup card, pointed to a kid on the bench, and said 'Moses, you're up!'"
** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] earlier:

-->'''Dan:''' You're gonna do a rewrite on the Haggadah?
-->'''Jeremy:''' It's not written in stone, Danny.
-->'''Dan:''' Actually, some of it is.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Once again, the show's trouble with the CSC network is meant to mirror Sorkin's troubles with ABC.
* GenreSavvy: Once Dana hears about the budget cuts, she immediately starts dropping hints to Natalie that she might want to look for another job, just to be on the safe side.
* GratuitousSpanish:
-->'''Natalie:''' Olympic fever, mi muchachos.
-->'''Dave:''' [[LampshadeHanging Oh man, she's doing it in Spanish now.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: Dana points out Luther Sachs (the CEO of CSC network) is one of the highest-paid CEO's in the country, and yet the network is cutting back on Olympics coverage.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Isaac after the meeting with the network people.
* InformedJudaism: This is the first indication we've seen that Elliot and Will are Jewish (though, to be fair, they had been relegated to ThoseTwoGuys throughout most of the season, and in the first season, the RunningGag of Will's constant arguments with Chris could be seen as an extension of JewsLoveToArgue).
* ShoutOut: Dan snarks on how cliched a manager sounds by comparing it to something written at [[Creator/HenryDavidThoreau Walden Pond]]. Also, when Casey mentions his video store asked him to do a top-ten list, Dana sarcastically asks if it'll include all five Franchise/{{Rocky}} movies.
* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Casey being asked by his local video store to do a list of his favorite movies.
* WaxingLyrical: At one point, Natalie says, "Doctor, doctor, Mr. M.D., can you tell me, please, what be ailin' me?", which is a line from the Young Rascals' "Good Lovin'".
