The West Coast Delay

Cut to Jordan in the parking lot, walking to her car. Her assistant Kevin Yu rather creepily catches up to her before she gets in, and hands her a bunch of papers she left in the office. He also informs her that Shelly called to say her ex-husband is going on Geraldo. Excellent. I hope if I ever get rich and famous, all my ex-husbands end up on trashy talk shows, too. Jordan kind of scoffs, "Well, sharks gotta swim, bats gotta fly, I'm gonna get screwed by this man 'til I die." Kevin suggests a pre-emptive strike against the ex -- putting out a release detailing which things he made up and which were true. Jordan says she'd look like an idiot, and prolong the story by commenting, and most of all, she'd help her ex to sell books. Kevin remarks, not unkindly, that she's taking it well. Jordan thanks him and gets ready to head over to Studio 60 to "check on Martha." By which she means "flirt with the cute writer guys."

Over at the studio, the show has begun, and Simon's doing the writers' room editorial. It appears to be going well, because the audience finds it gut-splittingly hilarious. Ricky and Ron watch proudly from backstage. Even Danny's laughing in the control room! This is the funniest shit ever, you guys! Jordan finds Matt, all cutely suited up, sitting in a random stairwell listening to the broadcast on headphones. She asks what he's doing, and he's all, "I'm listening. It helps if I hear the voices. You wouldn't understand." She doesn't care, and trots past him up the steps.
