This is to me where Milo Murphy's Law really starts to find it's stride. Sure, the Murphy's Law stuff has always been great in how creative it is, and this episode is no exception, but Dan and Swampy have always excelled in character work and humor first and foremost and this almost all entirely character. Zack in particular is a standout here and the eventual payoff to his secret here is so good I dare not talk about it here - let's just say it leads to an all time moment for the show and one of the very best songs in Dan and Swampy's entire oeuvre.

The character stuff also leads to some development for Milo himself - well as much development as a static character like him can get. Even more so then Phineas and Ferb, Milo is a character who doesn't change as much as have everybody else change around him. Despite that, it's really cool to learn some of his quirks and backstory, and it adds a lot to the interconnected world that surrounds him. Just a stellar episode from top to bottom.
