Excellent; one of the first (but not the last) times we see the Jimmy/conan relationship working out..

By Avearia, Aug 18, 2008 Report Abuse

This is one of the better shows out there. The episode is based off something funny; a girl desperate to find Jimmy pretends to be his boyfriend in order to draw him out of hiding and help her with a case. (and, understandably, Rachel blows up and gets incredibly jealous.) We can see how, as Conan, Jimmy can learn things without drawing suspicion, and turn around and use his alternate persona for solving the mystery.

Of course, the mystery itself was interesting too, but not quite the intricate puzzle that some are. a soccer star's little brother is kidnapped, and if he doesn't throw the game, the kidnapper promises that things will get ugly. A timed puzzle is always something interesting. Anyway, between those points, it's a fairly good episode that I recommend catching.moreless
