This episode is VERY different from the rest of the series, in that the entire episode is a send up of the movie Pulp Fiction, complete with Quintin Tarrantino as a bootleg video dealer. The jokes come at you as if they were fired from an Uzi. This show more closely resembles a SNL sketch than a sitcom episode. As a fan of both All American Girl and Pulp Fiction.
From QT telling Grandma the story of a gift he is giving her (ala Christopher Walken) to Grandma looking for a weapon to fend of some gangsters (just like Bruce Willis) this episode is an near perfect example of what a parody should be.moreless
