"Standards and Practices" is the eleventh episode of the sixth season of the American television comedy series ''30 Rock'', and the 114th overall episode of the series. It was directed by Beth McCarthy-Miller, and written by Vali Chandrasekaran. The episode originally aired on the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) network in the United States on March 8, 2012. In the episode, Jack (Alec Baldwin) battles teenage nemesis Kaylie Hooper (Chloë Grace Moretz); Liz (Tina Fey) chafes under the power of new network censor Kenneth (Jack McBrayer); and Jenna (Jane Krakowski) attempts to humanize her image by meeting the children produced from her egg donations. ==Plot== The finale of ''America's Kidz Got Singing'' is here, and everyone's in high spirits, with Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) proclaiming it's a "great night for the industry" because the show is "something the entire family can enjoy". However, that turns out to be the opposite of the truth when the final two contestants show up drunk on stage, and the night quickly turns into a disaster. The next day, Kabletown CEO Hank Hooper (Ken Howard) shows up in Jack's office, furious that he now has to go to Washington DC to deal with the Federal Communications Commission. After questioning the contestants, Jack comes to the conclusion that it was Hank's granddaughter Kaylie Hooper (Chloë Grace Moretz) who got the contestants drunk. He confronts her, but discovers that Kaylee only did it so that she could get her grandfather out of town for the week so he wouldn't attend a parent-teacher conference in which she expects will get her expelled for hacking her friend's YouFace page and posting inflammatory pictures of her. Jack then agrees to attend the conference instead to prevent her from getting expelled, but it turns out to be another one of Kaylee's tricks - she was trying to get expelled so she could attend a more prestigious boarding school and to be closer to her boyfriend who attends New York University for acting. However, Jack tricked her when he found out about how she likes to play lacrosse. Meanwhile, the America's Kidz incident has caused a shake-up in the Standards department, causing newly appointed Standards worker Kenneth Parcell (Jack McBrayer) to be promoted to head of late night TV standards. This means that he will now be in charge of running the censors for TGS, which proves to be a problem when he creates a new list of over-the-top rules that prevent the show from using any word worse than "dingbat". Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) retaliates and tells him they will be saying whatever they want. However, when she finds Kenneth crying in the men's room (which she decided to go in when the ladies' room was being cleaned), she takes back her statements and agrees to keep it clean. Unfortunately, Liz had already told Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) to perform his dirty stand-up special during the show, and it's up to Kenneth to last-minute "live bleep" him. Additionally, Jenna - who was planning to "cry" at one of the contestants' performance during the Kidz finale to "humanize" herself - decides to take a different route and meet one of the many children she has thanks to a series of egg donations she gave while living in Chicago. She immediately takes a liking to them - except for one, Judy (Nicole Drespel), who is significantly less attractive than the rest of them. Jenna kicks Judy out of the group - but soon regrets this after the rest of the kids kick Jenna out for being "too old". Jenna then realizes that Judy is the only child who proves Jenna has any good in her and decides to get to know her better. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Standards and Practices (30 Rock)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
