Lilly gets a job.

9.0

This episode... or plot should I say was a bit predictable. I mean a daughter getting a job who is a bit of a princess is like a reused plot over the ages, but I love the interpretation they did o with Lilly on this show. Not only was this a "Work hard, princess" and she learns the lesson in the end, they actually took the plot somewhere, which is always amazing. Lilly as a personal shopper. A professional B****! I like how she gets fired in the end, hilarious! Anyways Sean & Eddie's plot with the reviewer, not my favorite storyline. Henry, as the electricity monitor was cute & funny. Really good episode.moreless
