Jenna: You’re going to be so out of place, Liz.

I can be really dense sometimes when it comes to 30 ROCK storylines. Days after watching this episode and wondering why it contained a plotline about janitors, I just realized today that the two janitors were representing Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien, and their gripe with NBC. The title “Khonani” now makes complete sense.
Loved that Liz finally got some recognition for being a great “mom” to her coworkers. And like all great moms, she sacrificed herself there at the end to keep them safe. Liz rules!!
