If anyone didn't catch the parody here, this is pretty much a heightened reality of what happens in the real world. Presentations are all about the pitch and not real stuff. Okay, to put my ramblings aside, this installment is easily comes under the top 3 ones of freshman season. The unmistakable quirkiness that is trademark of the script, worked effortlessly here. Veronica and Ted were actually funny after a long time. The office going nuts over the Jabberwocky project was visualized well, and the supporting cast really pitched in perfect. We might get to see a relationship build up between Ted and Linda probably in the next episode or, the next season.

Good episode.moreless

- Voiceover: Veridian Dynamics. The environment. Everyone likes it. And so, we do too. That's why we're committed to saving it. Veridian Dynamics is turning every one of our buildings 100% green. It's ridiculously expensive and spending money makes us sad. But we're doing it because we love nature, even when it's being mean or just acting stupid. Veridian Dynamics. Greening our world. Edit
- Ted: So how did I get here? Because I like a girl, specifically this girl. And like so many stories about a girl, this one starts with gunplay. Edit
- Lem: We've disappointed him. Phil: No one would want to be us right now, and since we are us right now, it's very difficult. Edit
