Yeah, I know it shouldn't, but this annoyed me too.

Yeah, this is true. But I also know that the broken couch is going to join the awesome continuity this show has, and we'll see it for the rest of the show, just like the ice cream machine with bite marks.

I'm glad it wasn't just me. When you're working poor you literally cannot afford to be sentimental over broken poo poo.

Best moment of the episode goes to: "He left a note...it says 'Checkmate.'" Runner ups Baby Belchers on the couch Cardboard cutout falling down Linda telling a complete stranger about the pigeons. "Officer I'm yelling at the pigeons." "Get off. Don't even look at it." "We'll teach it what stains are." Linda running away yelling Monster. "You could never be queen..." "I know!" "Why am I doin' this!" "You guys react weird to good news." "We should get one silly one, just for sillies..." "Those are good lyrics."

I think my favorite was when Tina and Gene were stuck in the high chairs, then suddenly the Jester comes in stuck in the high chair. I definitely laughed the hardest at that in the episode.

I loved his passive aggressive "Just browsing?" with all the customers.

They could afford 500 for the couch, and now they have the couch they wanted. Checks out to me. (Plus, they've got sillies, too!)

I definitely laughed the hardest at that in the episode. There was such a buildup to this joke, with the Jester guy making a point of the "you break it you bought it" policy, that I assumed Tina and Gene would end up breaking the high chairs, causing them to have to pay for them and no longer be able to afford the $499.99 couch.

For a second I thought that the jester guy was going to be the only one to break a high chair.

Man I hate storylines like this in shows. Let's keep this horrible couch we don't even want to sit on and burn the expensive one because MEMORIES

I'm glad I'm not the only one that was upset by this episode. I wanted them to have (a) nice thing(s) too.

It was not as bad as that Double Dare episode a few years back, but come on. I get the show does not want them to have all the nice things, but now they have a couch that is not safe to sit on, forever. this felt contrived as hell.

Lice Things are Lice Tina volunteers to help the school nurse, but is quickly involved in a lice-infestation scandal; Bob tries to make improvements to the restaurant, but his changes end up driving customers away.

This is basically the worst case scenario for lice.

Although I'm assuming none of them actually have lice. Tammy just had a scratchy hat.

The farting stools subplot and the credit sequence had to have been Eugene Mirman's idea.
