Episode Quotes
 
(Danny's trying to comfort the electronic baby)
Jordan: You're shaking it like a snow globe.
Danny: Does smacking the mother ever help?
 
Suzanne: Should I order you food?
Matt: What are you eating?
Suzanne: A veggie burger.
Matt: Don't do that. If you want vegetables, go ahead. But don't eat pretend food. That's prop food you're eating.
Suzanne: I'm trying to lose ten pounds.
Matt: Well, don't do that either.
Suzanne: Matt.
Matt: You're perfect!
Suzanne: Stop making fun of me!
Matt: I'm not! Look at you!
Suzanne: Stop it.
Matt: If I was a little younger, less famous, and made a little less money, I would --
Suzanne: Thank you.
 
Danny: I'll tell you what I did to it, okay. The baby was in an accident, as babies sometimes are. And I rushed it immediately to a doctor of some sort.
Jordan: What kind of accident?
Danny: A freak accident.
Jordan: What kind of freak accident?
Danny: It was decapitated in a 18th century French guillotine.
 
Simon: Well you better glue that thing back on before Danny sees it.
(Danny comes in)
Danny: How's it going.
Tom: Good.
Danny: Oh my God!
Tom: So look, we beheaded the baby.
Danny: What the hell did you do?!
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
The countdown clock is inconsistent throughout the episode. When Matt and Danny talk about Harriet, there are 20 hours left on the clock. Later in the episode, there's 1 day, 20 hours left, which is more accurate since near the end of the episode it's 4AM on Wednesday.
 
 
Cultural References
 
The lawyer that is representing Studio 60 says she's from the Gage Whitney law firm. In Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing, Gage Whitney was the law firm that Sam Seaborn (Rob Lowe) worked at until he left to join President Bartlet's (Martin Sheen) campaign.
