    Better than how this show has been as of late. This show remains consistently good but it's just not near as impressive as when I started watching it. Maybe I built it up too much in my mind, regardless, this was a pretty funny episode.

    The cold opening was fantastic, it was a great start to the episode. The "racist book" story line was original and hilarious. Also, it was great to see Leslie Grossman back on television (even if it was only a guest spot).

    Maddie kind of annoyed me here. Drunk Maddie just wasn't very convincing, nor was she funny. The whole story line just seemed all too familiar. Her ending up on the bus bench was pretty funny though. Overall, good installment of Better with You.moreless
