In the show opening, a debate is held between the candidates for Chelsea Lately office manager, the incumbent being
Chelsea Handler and her opponent being
Chuy Bravo. Chelsea and her round table panelists
Ben Gleib,
Liz Carey and
Ryan Stout discuss last night's final presidential debate, judge
Carrie Ann Inaba falling off her chair during
Dancing with the Stars (2005), two Hooters Restaurants on Long Island closing since they've lost business to their competitor Canz, and a report that certain drugstore chains are refilling prescriptions without the customers asking for them. Chelsea receives advice on daytime talk show hosting from
Katie Couric. And Chelsea chats with guest
Zachary Quinto about his show - the "Asylum" version of
American Horror Story (2011) - and working with
Jessica Lange, coming out, and campaigning for
Barack Obama.
