The ending sort of had this vibe that Paula wasn’t there to confront Rebecca about her past, but was there to warn her that Josh has dirt on her. Which would make how Rebecca treated Paula much, much worse.

I recall first seeing a personified manifestation of anxiety thirty years ago on the series ‘Thirtysomething’ (in that case they were elf dwarves). ‘Young Rebecca’ in this episode felt different, she wasn’t Ally McBeal’s dancing baby hallucination. She was a diagnostic symptom of Rebecca’s spiraling untreated…

I truly hope that one day we will hear a bit of Hector and his mom’s podcast.

I mean, Heather is always the gem of this show, but especially in her big solo moment. And as a student right now (albeit one who is two years away from graduating) I felt this so much.

My, how little Rebecca has grown! And so has the little boy at Home Base - he now looks like he’s legally allowed to drink there! 

Yeah! One little bad thing happens with a gun, and all of the sudden people act like all ammosexuals are to blame! We should be allowed to fuck our guns in peace and not be hunted down because of that singular bad thing that happened that one time.

we don’t take kindly to YOUR TYPES in here

Sure, blame the woman.

Yeeeeeeah... If the guy is living his life thinking he and his partner have simultaneous orgasms all the time, it’s his fault. It’s one of those things when you don’t care to learn. When you go through your life with your metaphorical fingers stuck in your ears and going “LALALALALALA” when the subject comes up.

It was a very holy shit moment, and it also made me go super quickly from “fuck yeah Josh is a dick” to remembering she’s a stalker who makes me concerned for Josh’s well-being at the best of times.

Holy crud, I loved this episode. The whole 50 Shades/Eyes Wide Shut parody with Nathaniel was exquisite. Of course everyone at a party like that would be asshole Orange County-wannabe Republicans. Of course Rachel would shred the fancy lingerie and squee over getting to wear a masquerade masque. There were some easy…

Paula’s original Mama Rose number is one of my favorites on this show, so I was so excited for Rebecca to do a reprise. Especially when it kicked into high gear at the end and she confessed all of her crimes in what seemed like on breath. I was literally on the edge of my seat by the end of that.

I don’t know about Protestants’ association with the ‘holy ghost’ but as an ex-Catholic I laughed out loud at the depiction of one of the most nonsensical ‘central tenets’ of the church. A ghost? I can’t recall a ghost being mentioned in the bible anywhere and nobody in charge explained it.

Hoo-boy, and Rebecca isn’t even in the car with Josh right now to gaslight him.

“Yet, as Paula says, he’s also never been told”.

I’m kind of sad we won’t see Father Brah reacting to Josh trying to be a priest. Since I assume that story is over.

I thought it was great. But it also makes me think - given this season doesn’t look like it’s actually going to be about revenge, after all - that things are about to get very, very dark. Even compared to how dark it’s gotten before.

Best part of that episode was how the boys reacted to the Don’t Smoke improv troupe.

• “I’m glad to see Butters still hasn’t learned proper urinal etiquette.”

I’m really bummed that you won’t be reviewing each episode for this final season. Your reviews for this show are what largely got me into it along with the smaller (but friendly) community on these pages of the A.V Club. I wonder if they will be back since the A.V Club switched to Kinja.... 😦
