Episode Quotes
 
Scott: I'm not a reporter, and my name's not Frank Woolley. That's just an alias I used to get close to you. My real name is... Scott Woolley
Will: You know whe-whe-when people want to hide their identity, they usually change their last name.
Scott: ...And what would be the point of that?
 
Grace: Karen was interviewed yesterday at my office. Well... not so much interviewed as as a corrections officer came by and told her to pee in a cup and give a hair sample.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
How could a vote have taken place so quickly without anyone noticing how they were voting? Even a written vote would have taken longer. Of course, it is a comedy show, so in most respects we should assume they just looked at each other and nodded.
 
So Scott asks Will to make a bio and Will says he has to trim his down a bit, and runs out of his office. Wait a sec... wouldn't he need to make those changes on his laptop... in his office?
