This episode was very funny. The actors were just hilarious. All the things they did to sell the house. The people living in the house were creepy. The parts with Bobby acting were very funny. It was a shame that Hank had to make his house look like Bill's to keep it. Peggy was very funny because she was yelling all over to the actors. It would have been funnier if Dale was in the play because he'd attack every one who came by being the over protective war veteran. Overall, this was the funniest episode i have seen in a very long time.moreless
