Well, if the supposedly leaked script is any indication, it's now in New York City, everybody's white, Tetsuo is no longer called Tetsuo, & the hero & villain are now, or course, brothers.

The Troy Timeline, definitely. Sure, Pierce dies, Annie gets commited, Jeff loses an arm, etc., but Donald Glover's face the second he sees that troll surrounded by a ring of fire, followed by his voice box-assisted explanation of having to eat it…So effing worth it.
Agreed! We need to seperate all body parts of the beast & hide them aroun the world in order to do everything possible to make sure the beast never forms again!
My haul:
The Sienna plug…
…Was a bit distracting, but meh, we kinda knew what we were in for since the Subway stunt that helped get the show back on. If it keeps the entertainment going, I'll put up with it. Still, Awesome could've just stopped at "the new Sienna" before quickly mentioning the features.
The bit with the numbers was good (since, as mentioned, they form a valid hpone number), the yeah, the island was a bit of overkill.
All I can say…
Is that I hope there's a follow-up episode showing Abed & Troy's eventual cardboard navy of destruction.
Other Observations:
- Did anyone else think the mention of the monkey's "Help Me" scribblings were a nod to SNL's "Bathroom Monkey" commercial? If so, nice touch, if not, still damn funny.
Other Observations:
- Sorry Phil, but you just can't top Jay when it comes to making clever sports-themed t-shirts. Doesn't really help that yours probably got your ass handed to you, either.
Initial thoughts…
- I too, really enjoyed the rendition of "Forget You". And anyone who dislikes just because it was censored should go forget themselves.
Simpsons' Twilight parody…
…Just didn't do it for me. Felt more like their I Know What You Did Last Summer or Harry Potter parodies, where they just went "Well, we saw the trailers & read the cliffs notes, hopefully that should be enough material to fool everyone."
Failure…
…To mention Tracy's plan to improve his image by savng the life of a heroic 911-dialing cat by having Kenneth stage an attempted murder he could foil. Easily the best scene of the episode for me, topped off by Jenna's intermission & cat actually calling 911 again after Kenneth gets knocked out.
Eh, I'm guessing that reply was meant for my post above. Sorry there, streatbeater.
"Well, MARY…" I mean. My own refusal to doublecheck my posts harms me again. Curses!
The only two…
…The only two things that kept me from seeing this a potential best episode for the show were during the final bit in Orion's base:
Well, me & my friends would always do little skits when we handed out candy on Halloween. One of us would be a masked serial killer that either killed the other in front of the kids, then handed out candy, or handed out candy while the other played a slain victim begging for help.
Favorite bit:
Cam explaining his whole Quasimodo story, then just seemingly randomly referring to the kids who attacked him as "townspeople" in the middle of it all. Then he reveals it actually makes sense: He lived on a farm, therefore to him they WERE "townspeople".
Not to mention it was a convenient excuse to finally quash the audience's complaints of "But why don't they just DVR Robin's show??" that stemmed from the episode where they stay up all night to watch it.
Was that…
…A quick Pearl Jam reference with Lily's student, Jeremy?
Makes sense
It's only logical that Freddy Kruger could be defeated by a picture of black licorice. It's just…unnatural. Creeps the hell out of me.
