To promote The Travel Channel’s Passport to Great Weekends with Samantha Brown, Moroch put together a spot where Samantha returns to work — only to find naughty colleagues foiling her office.

“Aren’t you supposed to be traveling?” one accuses.

“I was,” she snaps, moody and tired and still dragging her luggage. “The new show is called Passport to great WEEKENDS. It’s a weekend.”

“You’re not gone all week!” one concludes, squinting in concentration.

But the best line comes at the end, when she throws open a door full of styrofoam surprise and growls, “They’d never do this to Bourdain.”
