[4.2/10] I had essentially forgotten about this one, and on rewatch, I can only assume that it's because my brain mentally blocked it out. This is pretty much as bad as Bob's Burgers gets. A love pentagon where Tina wants Yap, Yap wants Gail, Gail wants Bob, and Linda is involved and egging the whole thing on is just weird, and there's a lot of uncomfortable sexual stuff to boot. I'm no prude, and it didn't offend me, but Bob's sister-in-law haranguing him for sex while her wife pushes him into it despite his clear discomfort is just not amusing or enjoyable for me. It's a strange episode, without many laughs (Ken Jeong finds the more annoying side of Chang from Community with Dr. Yap for most of the way), and little to recommend it.
The B-story, with Louise and Gene having continual contests regarding a jawbreaker has some funny moments (mostly their endurance test for listening to Teddy's story) but peters out pretty quickly as well. Really, the only source of laughs is "The Prince of Persuasia." Mrs. Bloom and I will still randomly crack one another up by quoting "push her in a lake" or insisting the other push a higher floor in the elevator and "make a big deal out of it." Still, making fun of The Pickup Artist isn't enough to redeem this pretty crappy episode.
Why do people think rape is funny? :-/
