I want birthday cupcakes with Betty's face on them.

I agree that the main story was pretty thin. Most of the meat I already knew about, like the explanation about the wrongly observed speed of a UAP, but I did like seeing old clips of people talking about aliens and such, as well as the news report bits -- Mike Wallace introducing his cigarette, John Chancellor laughing about "UFO" being painted on the side of a UFO. Oh, and I liked hearing the suggestion that UAP sitings could be attributed to seeing a flock of pelicans because I had a "What is that?" moment when I saw some once. I didn't think they were a UAP, but I couldn't figure it out until I drove closer and saw the pelicans. The previous stories, like Mangi's confirmation hearing, were infuriating.

I haven't had that problem with LWT or with Max in general. (I watch on my laptop.) I have had it occasionally with other streaming services. Very annoying.

I think there was a purpose other than having Will respond strongly. If Antonio has friends who are anti-police, then what does that say about Antonio? I don't want him to be a bad guy either, but I actually hope, for the sake of good writing, that there's something in his past (or present) related to problems with the police. Whatever that may be.

I was watching some other show, and a character was named Betty. For me, there is now only one Betty.

This was one of my favorite parts of the ep. Not just the sweetness of what they were saying, but also how they were jostling around for the camera. Yeah, I wish I wasn't bothered by all the predictability. I was holding out some hope that Questlove wouldn't show up, just so it wouldn't be predictable, but no. And we all knew that Janine would come back to Abbott. Frankly, I was getting annoyed at how she was reacting to every reminder that she was officially becoming a district employee. I know it was supposed to be funny, but it just bugged me. Maybe I wasn't in the right mood to watch. I did enjoy the opening with The Bear scenes. And then later when the cafeteria chef (cook?) called out "Corner!" before Ava bumped into her. Then Ava saying, "Are we just yelling out things we see now? Walls! Floor! Huge mess of food!" Jacob squeaking out "I did" when Ava asked who sent the new flyer out was great. Another thing I liked was the different district employees. Funny, distinct characters. Esp the one from HR. I always love hearing people say, "One of us. One of us," from Freaks.

I'd choose death by chocolate.

I'm going to have to watch that last bit so I can put the voices to the names.

Wow, that Papyrus 2 sketch was long. I enjoyed this ep. I haven't liked all of the alien abduction sketches, but I did like this one. Loved Ryan's line about the aliens being like a broken doorbell: No dong. I'm not a fan of all the breaking, but mainly because the audience cheers and hollers like it's the best thing in the world. I liked the monologue. I like Emily Blunt. I absolutely LOVED the engagement sketch. Ryan and Andrew were so good. Ryan whispering was hilarious. This was the best. Get That Boy Back was pretty good. Bugged me that I couldn't always understand the guys in the bar sketch. Beavis and Butthead was another great one. Again, too much breaking, but I still laughed. Didn't care for WU. I don't think there was a joke that I particularly liked. The hospital sketch was pretty good. I like Bowen's weird character. I wish Ryan hadn't kept blowing at his bangs. I suppose he thought that was funny, but I think it would have been funnier if he just ignored it, as his character probably would do. Erin Brockovich was another good one.

I'm gonna guess that something more significant is going to happen with Luke. He's a reporter, so it'll probably have something to do with that. He'll uncover some info about one of the other characters (Antonio?), or he'll get killed investigating a story, or whatever.

Are jelly bean belts a thing? First I'd heard of them.

True. But I doubt there will be more to this on the show.

The threats seemed to be coming from that one guy, who was arrested.

I loved all the drag queens. I got the strong feeling at the end that the lawyer would be back. So much humor in this one, and I like it. Helps a lot. The vanilla envelope banter and doing French braids was great. More of this, please. Like others, I hope Antonio doesn't turn out to have some heavy baggage.

Mr. Tough Guy. Great job of them in uncovering the truth about Absolute Solutions, but what a depressing story. And I think any Gov or AG who pushes for the death penalty should be required to watch one being carried out. The palate cleansers of the running dogs and Ilgar were very much appreciated.
