Dance of the 30 Rock Fairies

Welcome back, nerds!  The sixth season of Tina Fey’s 30 Rock is upon us, at last!  And, though we can’t be sure of what the brains behind the hit show have been up to all this time, or what hijinks the TGS team will get into in the coming year, we know what we’ve been up to: dreaming, nonstop, of what we hope will go down.

So here are just a few of those dreams!

Blerg!

The Real Cause of Kim Jong-Il’s Death

In an effort to restore both Jack Donaghy’s mental health and family, as well as to finally bring an end to Kenneth’s exploration of Earth, the mysterious Jacob helps the ageless page infiltrate Kim Jong-Il’s top-secret TV studio — which looks a lot like Fox’s — where Avery is being held.  True to form, Kenneth Ellen Parcell takes a diplomatic approach first, however, The Illest refuses to release his captive, and Kenneth has no choice but to unleash his deadliest weapon of all: overwhelming love and sweetness.  Parcell’s embrace is too much for the dictator to handle, and, Grinch-like, his heart expands to the point of no return.  “I hope Heaven is sunny, beach-weather, all the time, always…”  With Kimmy gone, Avery is safely returned to Liddy and Jack, and Kenneth’s courage and devotion to humanity are rewarded with an indefinite stay on Earth.

Gay Agenda

Tracy Jordan actor Tracy Morgan accumulated a lot of douche points in 2011, following a highly publicized homophobic remark he made.  Being that the show earned a GLAAD Award not a year before, it’s high-time the show’s writers prove Morgan’s actions were a fluke.  So Jordan’s own son, Tracy, Jr., Comes Out of the closet, putting dad at his wits end.  After failing to get the answers he’s looking for from the penguins in the NYC Zoo, Jordan, by chance, runs into none other than George Takei, who gives the dad the most helpful piece of advice he could’ve hoped for: “It’s okay to be Takei.”  Inspired, Jordan solicits the help of Paul and Jenna to put on an original musical, The Color Rainbow, for Jr., with the Star Trek star as narrator.

Hero Worship

With the “chaos” reigning over the set of TGS, Liz decides to take on an assistant.  Of the pool of applicants, one seems to stand out the most: earnest, bespectacled, and frumpy, Lisa Limón reminds Liz of herself at that age, and, when Limón admits to idolizing the TGS creator, the young aspiring writer is hired.  However, tensions rise when Kenneth feels threatened; it seems that Limón would do whatever it takes to become Liz’s Favorite, including encroaching on the page’s duties.  Completely won over by her new assistant, and relishing the worship she’s getting for the first time, Liz is blind to the rising conflict; that is, until Liz learns of Limón’s secret past, and Kenneth discovers she’s a member of his clan’s hated rivals.  However, once again Kenneth teaches Lisa the importance of love, and the beauty of the people of TGS, so they make up and forge a sexless marriage.  And I think I just wrote myself into 30 Rock.  So.  Whatever.
