Why would Cookie have to lip synch in the first place? On any given season of Drag Race, about half the contestants are complete flakes, three or four are above average, and the remaining two or three are phenomenal. Gene would easily fall in either of the top two tiers.

I went to Bob's Burgers Live! and during the Q&A, I asked H. Jon and John if they could tell me, in character, who their favorite kid is (and that they couldn't flake out and say "we don't pick favorites" because parents always do).

I wouldn't say it's a thing, but RuPaul's Drag Race had a couple episodes where the contestants had to whip up an outfit from stuff found in a dumpster: "trash bag couture."

I doubt Eskimos have sexy times outside, exposed to the cold elements, though. They do it inside where it's insulated, dry, and warm.

Or Grant Ward with cookies and friendship bracelets.

The Linda as a blonde subplot was worth it for that scene about the sexy assistant slash sexy nurse slash sexy army nurse fantasy discussion alone. John Roberts does a good impersonation of a breathy Marilyn Monroe.

This is the first time I've ever felt culture clash while watching an episode of this show. Gringas, why do you insist on wanting to be your child's friend? Why is being "the cool mom" so darn important?

But only because she couldn't tell the family about Marigold up front. Without knowing the girl was actually Edith's, of course the family would think Edith was a little crazy doting over some random kid.

Is that still true after this season?

Hey, Lady Edith managed to do somewhat well for herself, alright? Michael Gregson was attractive, and he left her a beautiful daughter and the beginning of a publishing empire.

See! I KNEW the Whedons wouldn't let us down!

Agent She Shot Me and Left Me For Dead…She Likes Me Back!

Dum Dum Dugan, based on Agent Koenig's name drop in this episode.

Is it just me or is there a continuity error re Big Bob's Diner? In Bob Fires the Kids, Bob gets a box of his old "toys" that was sent to him, as Linda says, "from the little old ladies who took over your dad's old place." The ladies found the box in an air vent and sent it to Bob unopened because they were afraid the…

First the injury to his most prized organ and now he's potentially lost the only other friend beside Simmons that he's ever had?

Agent I Brought Back Your Daughter, Sir

The excellent Kumail Nanjiani voiced Bob's fellow competitor, and in-universe celebrity chef Skip Marooch. His standup is ah-mazing. He had me laugh-crying during this one bit about the time his parents made him go to some kid's birthday party that he didn't even like. This all took place in Pakistan where the…

I'm surprised Raj of all people, foodie extraordinaire and man of good taste, didn't suggest getting the bottle of champagne appraised. That sucker had been aging for a few decades and was probably worth something.

So this is bothering me, and I'm sure that's what the PTB intended: Lance and Bobbi. Their fight right before backseat sexy times was a little too on the nose. Bakshi attempts suicide, Lance accuses Bobbi of driving Bakshi to suicide because the former is sure the latter was about to spill secrets about Bobbi, then…

At least he makes an effort to speak it, which is more than we can say for Manny.
