[edit] Plot

The new heating vent becomes a source of entertainment for Grace when she discovers she can hear the tumultuous life of the couple in the apartment below. What first becomes an interest for her becomes an obsession for both her and Will. Elsewhere, Jack gets his first play but Karen is forced to let him know how bad it is. Her attempt to fix it combines with Jack's depression over Will and Grace's ignorance of him in favor of the vent, resulting in a play in which Jack dies and Will and Grace realise the error of their ways, with a special appearance by Karen as a heavenly cruise director.
