[Scene:  Resident Cast Members (RCM) assemble in the lobby as doorman sleeps peacefully.
Doorman: curled up, fetal position behind lobby desk]

RCM L  remains visibly upset that her granddaughter strolled past sleeping doorman two episodes ago. She wonders how many others stroll by between the hours of 11:00 pm and  7:00 am.
*
RCM J increases her apprehension by informing the cast that on
Monday, March 26th, 2012 at 10:34 pm when he arrived home, there was nobody at the door – or, anywhere at all.
*
RCM J-2 attempts to one-up RCM J by announcing that when he arrived home 1:40 am on March 29th,  the doorman was fast asleep.
*
In an apparent attempt to trump RCM J-2,  RCM J sends a surprise announcement to the cast via a text message: Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 6:15 AM: Suprise-suprise-Doorman sleeping again.

[RCM continue discussion in lobby comparing recent stories of the lack of security at 350 East 52nd Street. Camera pans around lobby- the following conversations featured]
*
“On Saturday, March 31st the porter’s girlfriend was the only one manning the lobby – seriously – she even opened the door for me”.
*
“Someone left a cd for me at the front desk yesterday &  when I opened the cd case, it was empty.  It appears we may be better off when the doormen are asleep”.
*

“Last night I had a friend come by.  She got to the lobby at 1:50 am and the night doorman sent her up unannounced. He didn’t know how to look up my information even though she gave him my apartment number.  Even my friend found this to be unusual for a doorman”.
“Happens ALL the time to me.  What’s the point of paying extra in rent for a doorman when they can’t police the door, nor do they even open the door for you half the time!”
*

[At this point one RCM becomes irate to discover the doorman opens the door for another RCM - even if it is only half the time!  RCM storms off set]

One RCM made the following sign available for all to use freely:
