"It's not a nightlight it's a glow in the dark Batman" -Sid
He is so me
for the comment above, Tony doesn't change in this episode because it ends with him realizing he has to change. that's why it's a good ending. it's the realization that hits so hard, not the change itself.
For an episode titled Effy, nearly nothing has to do with her, and that's what makes this episode so great. the one thing Tony truly cared for and has a hold on after all the crap that's happened (and what he deserves) almost leaves him. and thus, cascading into him finally doing something for someone else and learning that only he likes himself. I don't do it justice, but that on top of the work done with Sid combines to create a truly great episode
Effy's a fucking icon, and I can't believe I completely forgot this was her first episode... that girl went through so much. Tony can still go fuck himself, but at least he saved her in the end, I guess.
I related so much to Tony in this episode cuz parents always blames the oldest child

Yeah, not buying it. Tony does practically nothing to redeem himself and yet writers try to sell a feel good ending. Still the least likeable character on the show, and the story does little to convince the viewer that the character has evolved. Weakest storytelling so far, in otherwise stellar show.
