Storyline

When they appear on their favorite TV show, Antiques on the Road, Grace can't wait to dress down the guests who are ever hopeful that their tchotchkes are worth a fortune, while Jack just wants to undress the show's attractive appraiser, Porcelain Paul. But then it's all business when they realize that their junky, thrift-store teapot is actually valued at $30,000. Meanwhile, Will's new boss makes the reluctant lawyer kiss up to Karen in hopes of landing her hubby as a client. Written by Anonymous

Jack McFarland: [guards move a trunk that Jack is under; he looks up at Grace] Can you see me?
Grace Adler: Yes, Tommy. I can see you.
