[edit] Overview

After Liz takes her ex-boyfriend, Dennis "The Beeper King", back simply because he asks, Jack takes it upon himself to mentor her as he thinks that she is leading a life of mediocrity. His tactics include making reservations for them at a restuarant that is less than respectable. Meanwhile, Tracy gets a tattoo on his face after he sees his picture in the paper with the headline saying that he is normal, Jenna gets botox and collagen injections with disastrous results, and Josh is severely beaten and possibly brain damaged by Elizabeth Taylor after he does a sketch about her.

[edit] Behind-the-scenes

The episode was originally scheduled to air on November 8, 2006, but was bumped for a two-hour episode of The Biggest Loser. The day after its November 30 broadcast, NBC ordered nine more episodes, enough for a full season of the show. [1]
