5. The Problem Solvers

Complete story — includes the ending

Jack offers Liz a chance to create a television pilot based on her "Dealbreakers" sketch. She is initially excited, but Tracy and Jenna convince her to look for other offers before agreeing to work with Jack. She hires an agent ( Josh Fadem ) and displeased with her decision, Jack announces that NBC is moving forward with the pilot's production and calls in television host Padma Lakshmi as Liz's replacement. Liz threatens to sue Jack and NBC for the rights to "Dealbreakers", but Jack informs her that NBC owns the rights to it. During their respective meetings, the two realize that they should work with one another. They make amends and agree to create the pilot together. Meanwhile, the new cast member, Jack "Danny" Baker ( Cheyenne Jackson ), the robot street performer, arrives on set and learns the intricacies of TGS. Danny treats Kenneth politely and does not ask him to run any errands for him which leads Tracy and Jenna to question their demanding ways, resulting in the two asking less of Kenneth which upsets him. Kenneth asks Danny to yell at him more. Danny, who is Canadian, has had a hard time pronouncing the word "about", but after yelling at Kenneth, and saying "about" without an accent, thanks Kenneth for helping him. In addition, after giving Liz advice, Tracy and Jenna solve other problems of the TGS cast and crew.
