Hi everybody, and welcome back to my recap area! I hope you all had a nice hiatus (a.k.a. “Christmas”). I spent the holidays in the sunny Caribbean, but honestly, most of the time I just stared at the gently crashing waves going “why are you not my television?” So let’s go!

Finally!! Not one beat was missed in the gang’s first episode back in what has felt like years. I hope Tina Fey is pretty damn happy with her new baby because she really messed with my fall by taking all that time off. God. Selfish.
So. Jack only briefly mentions his wife who is still being held captive in North Korea. Now, I’d assumed they filmed this episode before Kim Jong Il died, but Jack mentions Kim Jong Un; it happened too fast for me to notice, but do you guys think they just dubbed over that one syllable? I really don't know.
Meanwhile, Kenneth has heard that the apocalypse is happening and he cheerfully prepares himself. Toofer, Lutz and Frank mess with Kenneth by saying they just saw four flaming horses run by. Kenneth retorted with my favorite line of the episode: “Super gay horses are one of the signs of the apocalypse!”
THERE ARE SO, SO MANY MORE WORDS BELOW THIS JUMP. GO THERE.
