EPISODE NUMBER: 10028 (November 21, 2013)
GUEST: J.J. Abrams
SEGMENTS: Intro – 11/21/13 | Nuclear Option in the Senate | Mary Fallin and Same-Sex Benefits | “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? It’s Me, Stephen Colbert.” | Sign Off – “S”

On tonight’s show Stephen kicked off his interview with director and author J.J. Abrams by saying, ‘It’s been a long time. The squirrel is in the basket’. During the interview, it was hard not to notice the camera briefly zoom out while a picture of a ‘squirrel’ and later another of a ‘basket’ flashed up on the screen behind the interview area.
This is not the first time Stephen has said ‘the squirrel is in the basket’. Previously, it was mentioned during the intro to the March 15, 2010 episode, in which Stephen asks Robert Baer if the squirrel is in the basket.
But what do they mean? Are they ‘Easter Egg’s’, something else, or nothing at all? Could Stephen just have been ‘Baer Baiting’ as the intro graphic suggested, or are these two events somehow strangely connected?
If you attended last night’s taping, can you help shed some light on what surely will be puzzling us until the show returns on December 2nd.
