Rachel has a terrific voice. Dream Rebecca does too. Real Rebecca is pretty average, and it's deliberate. (ex: end of "California Christmastime")

Same.

Have we seen her in college before? I thought it was just high school.

"WORK!"

I'm hoping she starts going twice a week.

Yeah, the search term line is a callback, too! Paula says that in an early episode.

Oh, I know! I am just not one of those people.

Odds that this exact joke (credited to you, of course) gets used in next week's CExG review: 100/100.

Well said. Father Brah gets the Lifetime Brah Award, for excellence in brah-, bro-, and dude-ing.

On the ol' Twitter, Donna Lynn Champlin said that whole bit was improvised and she was covering her face to hide the uncontrollable laughing. I LOVE THIS SHOW.

Not what I meant by red herring. Of course blowing up your life for a guy you dated for two months when you were a teenager is foolish. But the show has made SUCH A POINT of the Josh/Greg thing, over and over again, and I think perhaps it's all a long con, a rom-com set-up for a show that isn't actually a rom-com.

Yeah, seemed like good ol' running away to me.

On the flip side, there are a few instances (thinking specifically of "Settle for Me") where the person who did the singing denies it going the way she says.

I loved it, but I'm a sucker for a Huey Lewis jam. But I'm with you on the song being so direct—no, not a phase, no, not secretly gay, no. Bisexual.

No, I meant the preview for next week that shows Dr. Akopian in a girl group with Ricki Lake and Amber Riley, dancing in the clouds and singing "Dream Ghosts."

I would say 'not arguably,' because "Poor Unfortunate Souls" is perfection in every way. One of the best Disney songs ever. Ursula is the best. The face that launched a thousand drag queens.

Welcome out! That's great timing :)

Agreed. I feel like both relationships are red herrings, maybe.

Yeah, that whole sequence was gorgeous.

Yeah, the lease was particularly great.
