Work pressures are getting to the gang and everyone is dying for a day off. After scoring a job at the mall's indoor amusement park, Jonesy comes up with way to get rid of all their blues - he can get them all in for free! They start planning their excuses so they can get a day off and hang out at the amusement park all day long. One problem: work-a-holic Jen (the one who needs a day off more than anyone) doesn't want to risk losing her job. So the rest of the gang put their plans in motion to break Jen out of The Penalty Box. Nikki and Caitlin become friends, and Jen manages getting caught with only probation - Jonesy ends up getting fired.moreless

    • In this episode, it is mentioned that Jen has no siblings because she didn't put that she had any on her Penalty Box application form, but in the 2nd season, Jen's older sister Courtney comes back from College.

    • When we go to the scene where Nikki tells the clones that she's taking the day off, just before that we see one of the clones saying "Welcome to the Khaki Barn, have a khaki day," but in the next scene they're all folding clothes.

    • Jude: Next thing ya know we're golfing on the moon! Which further illustrates my point because...even when the astronauts were pulling this mad historical move. They recognized the opportunity for goofing off! It's like one small step for man. Dude lets spin a few donuts in my moon buggy!

    • Nikki: (to Caitlin) You think you can just waltz into our lives and join the crew like some kind of insta-friend? I've known these guys since kindergarten, we have history. All I know about you is that you wear a lot of pink.

    • Wyatt: I didn't get any sleep last night. I was afraid to have the dream again. Caitlin: What dream? Wyatt: The one about the cowboy who thinks that I'm the one who ran off with his wife to the big city and he's coming to kick my.... Aaaaaah!! (sees a man dressed up like a cowboy)

    • Caitlin: Oh! I'm so glad you're here...Paramedic John Gage and...dude I'm totally a paramedic!?!?

    • Jude: The sick day isn't just a fun thing to do, it's a fundamental right of every man, woman, and child! (crowd cheers) Where's Jen? Wyatt: She left a couple minutes ago. Jude: Bummer. Wyatt: Good speech though.

    • Caitlin: Why don't they ever clean these washrooms? They're totally gagworthy! Nikki: (sarcastically) Yeah, like totally! Caitlin: You know, you're like totally putting the 'itch' in 'b'... Nikki: Whoa, my little lemon squeezing waif!

    • Nikki: Guys, I conferenced Malibu Juice Barbie.
