[x] Remove Ad
After Will wins a portrait session at a charity auction, he takes Grace to pose for a notoriously eccentric celebrity photographer but the unfocused shooter's bizarre methods ultimately produce a funky image that flatters Grace -- and frightens Will. Meanwhile, Jack's back with another performance act, and this time he employs magic tricks but regrets using Karen as his less-than-helpful assistant.

Episode Goofs |
| |
In an odd little props inconsistency, the painting (portrait of a man's face, resembled a young Ricky Ricardo) that had been to the left of Will and Grace's fireplace for 4 years is suddenly gone in this episode, replaced by a different (albeit similar) portait for the rest of the season.

An obvious reference to Bugs Bunny.
| Will: Since when are you afraid to tell people what you think? You walked right up to Kevin Spacey and told him he owed you nine bucks for K-PAX. I think it went something like this: "Hey, Spacey! Pay it forward!"
K-PAX was a Kevin Spacey-led science-fiction movie in 2001 which, according to Will, Grace didn't enjoy.
