Episode Summary

[x] Remove Ad
After winning a call-in radio contest for prized concert tickets, Grace vows to reciprocate and volunteers her time to charity, but when she recruits Will to join her at a community center, she quickly begs off her commitment when it conflicts with her busy social calender. Meanwhile, Karen and Jack don't escape either from Grace's newfound charity which forces Karen to rifle through her closet -- and allows Jack to accidentally donate a pair of Karen's most-prized shoes.

Episode Quotes

Jack: Now, give me one good reason why a man can't go out in a nice pillbox hat? (Jack puts on the hat and stands in front of the mirror) Hello, reason. (Looking inside the hat) Oh, my God, look. There are actually pills in here.
Karen: Come on, put that away and help me out.

Karen: Why anybody would choose to be homeless is beyond me.
Jack: Karen, nobody chooses to be homeless. It's because they did something bad.

Episode Goofs

Karen falls onto a couch in her closet that was bare. A few shots later, theres a piece of fabric laying there that neither her or Jack touched.

Why is Grace volunteering at a church group? She's Jewish.

Cultural References

Jack: I was once lost, but now I am found.

Quick reference to the song Amazing Grace.

Will: This is front-row seats to a sold-out Joni Mitchell concert. You love her.

Joni Mitchell rarely does concerts anymore, so getting a ticket at all is a miracle.

Will: She's 6, Nurse Ratched.

Quick and funny reference to the film One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
