Episode Guide
This is a spoiler section, so if you haven't watched the show (and plan too), DO NOT read any further.

episode 12
aired 1/28/04

synopsis: Jessica starts off in NYC promoting at Z100, the biggest radio station in the country listener wise. During the interview, she says she feels young despite being 23, because Nick is so much older than her (30). She got her song "With You" addeded to the play list (in fact, the song is doing very well on radio. It is currently #10 according to Radio and Records). Then it's off to her old Catholic high school in Dallas to perform. She notes ironically that they wouldn;t let her sing there as a kid because she was too good and the parents of the other kids felt it would make their kids look bad. Then we see kids swarming all over her at the school. And then fans lining up to sign CD covers in the mall.

In between all the Jessica scenes, we see Nick and Drew at the house. What's up with all that standing around that Nick and Drew do? Does make for interesting filler material in which they appear clueless.

Worst interview yet? Nick does an interview during the show, and it doesn't come off as a pleasant experience. Interestingly enough, Drew is there for Nick's interview. Nick gets pissed off when asked about what his sex life, especially during the wedding night. And to make matters worse, he ends up having to pay for his own lunch during the interview. Now who's the cheapskate?!!

Jessica's quote of the episode, "The first thing I have to do is poop"

Drew to Nick, "I'm not cheap, doosh", when he gives Nick his birthday present. A signed baseball.

So the 30th birthday celebration is next. Jessica greets Nick in a sexy and fairly revealing dress. Justin Jeffre is there at the party. Lots of dancing going on. It's a small, cordial party. Miller Lite gets miles of free promotion from this one. Jessica mentions a keg every month. At the end, she jumps out of the cake to do a personal dance. She wears a sexy corset that accentuates her boobs, as she so mentions herself pointing out how high they will ride. Nick makes the comment to the effect that he doesn't want her boobs damaged.

Jessica's gift to Nick? a $55,000 watch that is diamond encrusted. Nick, every the spendthrift is a bit astonished at the price tag. But by now, we're not all that surprised at the reaction are we?
