[7.8/10] I absolutely love Michael trying to prove that he is, in fact, charitable, and then inadvertently freaking out and kidnapping a complete stranger. As I’ve said before, the show does such a great job of setting everything up with Michael’s little car escapade, from the skeleton, nail polish, and burnt seats serving the multiple purposes of making it look like the car a serial killer would drive and showing how George Sr. was right that his kids would treat the car poorly.
The whole escapade with finding the car is very amusing. And there’s even something mildly sweet about Michael bidding on his sister when realizing that she, however half-heartedly, tried to do actual good in the wetlands. (Though I’ll admit to getting a big laugh out of Lucille’s “You’re not supposed to go as the wetlands” line.)
GOB trying to break into the permit office and eventually “delegating” to George Michael was good for a laugh. Plus all the bits with them negotiating over the rights to Mr. Banagrabber are outstanding.
Last but not least, I continue to enjoy the Buster/Lucilles storyline. Again, it’s the perfect setup and payoff with Buster finally being able to follow directions, only to accidentally deliver the “grand romantic gesture” that Lucille has been waiting for.
Overall, tons of laughs and well-written comedy in this one.
Gob may be becoming my favourite. Maybe that's because there was no Tobias in this episode. WHY!? The dad's sincerity of choosing between gangs made me giggle. Needs to be a spin off.
