Default I don't think Bob should have rehired Debbie since she came from the

employment agency?

he fired her because she was a horrible receptionist and then his group made him feel bad and then he rehired her because he agreed she wasn't trained. Well if she came from the agency then isn't she supposed to be screened properly?-lol

Maybe, but she was so scatterbrained I don't know how she would've become a secretary in the first place - for anyone!! But it was funny at the end of the episode that he gave Debbie a glowing recommendation at the drapery place that did such horrible work at his apartment. I can imagine the place went out of business within hours.

JERRY: She once worked as a secretary for the Vice President of the United States.

BOB: Which one?

JERRY: She didn't remember his name.

I feel asleep last night on the episode when carol was going to marry that weird guy and then she ended up making out with Jerry.


i like the show the most when it revolves around BOB and his work and home life. Not Carol and her love life. lol

I wish Debbie had been in MORE TBNS episodes!!!! She remains one of my favorite characters! Every screw up by her is just priceless hysteria!!!!

Bob: "Jerry, she isn't qualified to do any job in the office!"

Jerry: "Oh that's not true Bob. She told me this morning she takes speed writing. If you talk real slow!"

Jerry and Bob talking about picking up some stuff from the cleaners: I'm not sure of the exact dialog, but it goes something like this:

Bob: "I have to go and pick up my suits from the cleaners."

Debbie: "I'd love to go! I haven't been out all day."

Jerry: "That's very nice of you Debbie, if Bob doesn't mind."

Debbie: "Oh, I'm sorry Dr. Ryan, I didn't know getting the cleaning was your job!" LOL!

Bob: (to Debbie) "Sure go ahead, and take ALL the time you need."

Debbie: "Well, I'll do it just this once I promise. (She heads toward the elevator.)

Jerry: "Wait Debbie, you need a ticket?"

Debbie: "For the elevator!!!??" LOL!!!

Jerry: "No, the address is on the ticket here, see?"

Debbie: "Oh." (Elevator door opens) Debbie enters the elevator and says, "Dry cleaners, Please!!!" LOL!!!

(Later that day back at the apartment-Bob says to Emily:)

Bob: "You know, Debbie did something today, I never thought she could do."

Emily: "What?"

Bob: "She found her way back from the cleaners! It's too bad she forgot the cleaning!!!!!" Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
