Abed's subplot was the best subplot, as often happens. Unfortunately I don't think the other threads carried their weight.
Thee setup:
"I'm auditioning for Professor Garrity's all-black production of Fiddler on the Roof. It's called 'Fiddla, please'."
The landing:
"Someone drop an Old Testament beat!"
God, this show landed those setups in the funniest ways possible.
Fiddla Please is my favorite joke of the episode, and we get to see it in the stinger!
Professor Sheffield: "I have studied this show, Mr Abed. I am not a fan. I am not a groupie, I am an academic."
Bruh
"Yeah, about that. I wasn't so much 'molested' as much as I 'made it up.'" — Troy
"Story doesn't matter here. All that matters is our time... in the spotlight." — Professor Garrity
Now, hold on
Abed: "The empircally provable answer to the question 'who's the boss?' is..."
Professor Sheffield: "Angela Bower."I wish I was as cool as Abed
Oh, Abed's professor was Sammy Jankis in Memento. Also, that episode was just weird.
7/10

I believe this this may be one of my favorite bit parts by Stephen Toblowsky.
