Grace had hired a receptionist who is a Middle Eastern woman, who did an absolutely terrible job at being a receptionist, almost losing Grace's best client. But Grace couldn't get rid of her because that would look racist, and/or would hurt the woman's feelings. Finally, in the course of one conversation the woman tells her she's Jewish, and Grace says, "You're Jewish? Do you know what that means? We're both Jewish, so I don't owe you anything! You're fired! See you in temple!" Then in the next scene, Grace is talking with Karen about it, and Karen is chiding her for taking so long to fire the incompetent woman, and Grace says, "Well, that's what I get for all my liberal guilt. Sometimes I wish I were a Republican. Then I wouldn't have to worry about anyone's feelings. All I would have to worry about was being indicted." This got laughter and a smattering of applause from the studio audience.
