Revenge of the Wrath of the Nerd

Tracy joins Kenneth and a crowd of people on the elevator at the last minute. He smiles wryly and cracks "How come they ain't no Puerto Ricans on Star Trek?" No one laughs and when the elevator stops on the next floor and Kenneth observes "What is this, the local?" those same people uncontrollably laugh. Tracy's not laughing. Jack at the same time bursts into Lemon's office with the news of Geiss. He's awake and soon Jack will be CEO. They're having a meeting in one hour on the Edison terrace. He braces his hand on Lemon's shoulder and thanks his lucky coin for making this possible. He also pays attention to Lemon's high school reunion invite and insists that she go, but Lemon has not so fond memories of her high school days. Specifically a memory she has of looking like a super nerd as she peered through a telescope. The most popular girl in school, Kelsey Winthrop, asks a question and when Lemon mumbles something indiscernible back all the cool kids behind her start to laugh. Jack insists that she go and show her high school nemesis "that the ugly duckling has turned into a vaguely ethnic swan." He even offers her to take the GE jet. Lemon pulls back initially but when Jack reminds her that they have popcorn on the plane she stiffens her back. "I want to go to there."

Jack and Don Geiss meet later on the Edison terrace. Geiss is sitting in a wheelchair wearing a suit. He congratulates Jack for being the first to know, officially, that he is staying on as the CEO and then Geiss stands up confidently from his wheelchair. He was shaken out of his coma by a beam of energy and it told him to continue working. Jack's still his number two man and it will probably remain that way until Geiss drops dead. Judging from his full recovery from a coma that day may never come.

Tracy sits sulking in his dressing room, in his angry chair (a chair for pre-K students). He yells at Grizz and DotCom for not being around to laugh at his joke in the elevator. "Your job is to save me from embarrassment." DotCom points out that Grizz had to see the optometrist. "Making up words won't save you! We getting in an elevator with Kenneth and you're going to laugh at my jokes!"
