As Liz snores away her workout time on the couch, a real estate agent barges into her apartment with prospective clients. Liz finds out her building is becoming a condo and she can buy her apartment instead of rent. Liz turns to Jack for business advice. The ever shrewd Jack tells Liz condos are at a premium in New York and it makes good business sense to buy not just one but two apartments to invest her money and enlarge her living space. Jack advises her to buy out one of her neighbors apartments.

Jack and Kenneth discuss NBC’s green initiative recommendations for the company, but neither of them buy into global warming, saying its all a myth. Since they must both follow orders Jack and Kenneth come up with a plan to recycle and use energy more efficiently around TGS.

Liz becomes friends with her upstairs neighbor to get his aparment. Her neighbor suggests they move in together since his apartment has two bedrooms and Liz agrees. As Liz has second thoughts about taking the apartment from her roomate, Liz gets advice about her apartment scheme from Jenna. Jenna, who knows how to scare roomates away, tells Liz acting crazy is always a good idea to get rid of unwanted roomates.

Jack notices Tracy’s son is visiting. Tracy tells Jack it is “take your black child to work day”. Jack and Tracy have a heart to heart talk about kids and regret. Tracy tells Jack Bill Cosby let him down, real life with family isn’t like the Cosby show. Jack states he doesn’t want kids crimping his style while Tracy doesn’t want anymore kids because he can’t tell dirty jokes while the kid is in the room. Jack and Tracy decide a vasectomy is the way to go for both of them.

Liz’s new roomate comes home to find Liz looking and acting crazed, screaming and accusing him of everything under the sun. Unfortunately the scheme goes wrong as roomate Brian tells Liz he is gay and is there to listen to her problems. Liz realizes she has to find another way to drive Brian out of the apartment. Liz finds out Frank is making sun tea in his office, peeing in empty jars, then watering the flowers with it to recycle. Liz is grossed out and tells Frank he has to stop peeing in jars.

Tracy readies himself for his vasectomy while Jack waits in the waiting room. As Tracy goes under anethesia he dreams he is living the Cosby show life and his son makes him realize with only sons he needs a little girl in the family. Jack spends time with Tracy Junior, sees the cool dad picture his son is making for him and realizes he really does want children. Jack stops Dr. Spaceman from going through with Tracy’s operation. Tracy and Jack cancel their vasectomies.

Tracy suggests Liz have a crazy ex-boyfriend who will scare the roomate into leaving. Dotcom rushes through the apartment door, staging a bad acting scene with Liz about being a scary ex-boyfriend but instead Brian offers to help Liz deal with her ex.

Kenneth commends Frank on being the most green employee at TGS. Kenneth tells Liz she must make a choice: go green by getting rid of her mini-fridge or let Frank continue his “sun tea” method of helping the environment. Liz gives in and tells Frank to close the door when peeing, he says no way.

Liz suddenly realizes Frank’s gross method may be the way to get rid of her roomate. Liz drinks tons of ice tea and as her roomate walks in the door, pees in a jar in the living room, which drives her roomate out of the apartment.

Kenneth talks to the new maintenance man (guest Al Gore) about monitoring TGS’s carbon footprint. Al Gore goes into a lengthy, funny explanation of global warming and other ways to reduce our carbon footprint.
