3!! The 30 Rock episode “Succession” contains examples of:
4
5* TheBeard: Banks is still passing for straight in order to marry Don Geiss’s daughter Kathy.
6* ComicallyIneptHealing: Dr. Spaceman’s technique is flawed as always. He gives a fake shot, refuses to inject his heart on the grounds that [[BizarreHumanBiology every human’s heart is in a different spot]], and then [[TooIncompetentToOperateABlanket doesn’t even know how to call 9-1-1.]]
7* DrunkWithPower: All it takes is one look at her proposed salary as Jack's successor for Liz to tell the TGS crew to suck it and start schmoozing with the GE corporate suits. She also gets literally drunk -- as Jack points out, "business drunk" is better because you can still drive legally.
8* ManlyTears: Apparently you’re only allowed one instance of these in Don Geiss’s circles.
9* NumberTwo: Jack starts grooming Liz as this.
