In the episode, Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) and Jenna Maroney (Jane Krakowski) fall out as a result of Jenna's selfish behavior since her role on ''America's Kidz Got Singing'', Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) eliminates the page program to impress Hank Hooper (Ken Howard) but comes to suffer the consequences, whilst Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) contemplates his own mortality after a misunderstanding results in him receiving no birthday presents. ==Plot== As a result of her role on ''America's Kidz Got Singing'', Jenna Maroney (Jane Krakowski) has become a more widely known celebrity and is starring in the new holiday movie ''Martin Luther King Day'' (intro song "crash your party (feat charly) by 21st century girl〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/crash-your-party-feat.-charly/id499067965 )〕 ). Soon, she begins to let the fame go to her head and uses her best friend Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) as a decoy when leaving a restaurant, tricking her into having paint thrown over her by PETA protestors on her behalf. This leads the pair to fall out and go in search of new best friends, with Jenna hanging out with D-list celebrities, such as Charlie from ''Charlie Bit My Finger'' and Liz stumbling across her doppelgänger in a Barnes & Noble bathroom. Meanwhile, Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) eliminates the page program to impress Hank Hooper (Ken Howard), since all the jobs that the pages do can be done electronically to save money. However, Jack's plan backfires when a one-year "businessversery" present to Hank is sent to ''TGS'' by accident, due to him having accidentally instructed the computer to deliver to the "6th floor" instead of the "60th floor". Finally, Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) discovers that he won't be receiving any birthday presents due to a misunderstanding, but when Grizz (Grizz Chapman) and Dot Com (Kevin Brown) inform him that he already has most things anyway, he starts to contemplate his own mortality. Ultimately, Liz comes to realise that she needs Jenna because she is too self-absorbed to complain when she talks about her problems, whilst Jenna realises that all of her D-list friends are themselves too self-absorbed to pay her any attention. Jack acknowledges then he needs Kenneth Parcell (Jack McBrayer) and the other pages because he is able to blame all of his mistakes on them, while Tracy realises that he was simply annoyed with Grizz and Dot Com for not buying him any presents. During the closing credits, folk singer Steve Earle sings a ballad about the rise of Kenneth Parcell from farm boy to page. 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「The Ballad of Kenneth Parcell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
