The episode, "About Last Night," revolves around an Ocean's 11-style plot to steal the Hope diamond.

The Oceans 11 spoof was stupid, but I loved they way they portrayed each side acting because that's exactly what I've seen on various message boards.

The "I need to know whether he partied too hard or tried to kill himself" line summarized it perfectly.

Boom Baby.

It basically summed up nicely all the facebook statuses that night.

"It's Obama-bama!"
