Most of this past episode was okay. Towards the end I was wondering how the very different subplots would intertwine but when it happened it got one of the biggest laughs of the season from me.
Lewis had two scenes, he just passed but if you saw the episode we had the same reaction.

Lewis doing material at his AA meetings was fucking hilarious.

Haha didn’t realize Groat’s Disease is a callback to season two. I believe it was also used in season seven.

Somebody already predicted that upthread, but I agree. Certainly seems to be moving in that direction

They keep referencing the Seinfeld finale. There’s no way they don’t do the same thing.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The take care of my 11 year old thing was maybe the dumbest idea in the history of this show. That said, it was probably the funniest episode of the season so far.

I take one when I visit my sister for Christmas. Her husband doesn’t drink anymore and I disappear to put a little “swing juice” in my drinks.
