Let me just start off by saying that all things considered, I absolutely loved this episode. This was such a fun episode! It was really great getting to see all of the girls together in this episode. All of the storylines in this episode were great, especially Jenny's. I absolutely loved Jenny in this episode. Mia Kirshner did an amazing job of playing Jenny in this episode. Mia has done an amazing job of playing Jenny all season. I can't believe that Shane slept with Nikki yet again. I also loved Alice's storyline in this episode. Leisha Hailey did a great job of playing Alice in this episode. In closing, I thought that this was a very well written, well acted and well made episode of The L Word from everyone involved, and I can't wait to see the series finale of The L Word.moreless

- Bette: (getting ready for the dance competition) OK, do you think you need to go over it again? Tina: I think I'm good. Bette: (re: Alice, Tasha and Jamie) Do you think or are you sure?

ADD ALLUSIONS
- Alice: I never had rhythm. Okay? I don't... it's a joke. I don't know what I was thinking. Tasha: What are you talking about? You were the lead in West Side Story. West Side Story is a musical originally performed on Broadway in 1957. The book on which the musical is based was written by Arthur Laurents. Edit
- Alice: I didn't know Dance Fever was back on the air. Bette: Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize Kris Kross was looking for a new member. Dance Fever was a musical variety show created by Merv Griffin that ran from 1979 to 1987. Three couples danced to disco music, competing for cash prizes. A new version of the show ran briefly on ABC Family in 2003. Kris Kross is a rap duo that was popular in the early 1990s. Edit
- Alice: (to Bette and Tina, referring to Marci) Have you not seen Baby Mama? Oh my god, it is so truthful. It's like, you're all going to start out happy, and then before you know it, you'll be waiting on her hand and foot, you're going to be scared to have sex in your own house. Baby Mama is a 2008 comedy film with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. In the movie, Fey's character hires a surrogate, played by Poehler, to have her baby. Edit
