"Mediocre"

By coasterfreak14, Apr 17, 2010

The plot seems really random but interesting. I wonder what if Bobby was the Llama. It really developed Bobby and Connie's love for each other. I thought that the ending was clever, with Bobby choosing the girl (Connie) in the mirror.

Although, one thing I absolutely hated how intolerant Hank was towards the Buddhist religion. He was confronting the monk in the alley, he seemed to have that "my God is right and yours is wrong" attitude towards him and throughout the whole episode, which made me think of his as an ignorant Christian.

Overall, the episode was okay to watch, but Hank's attitude really knocked down the rating for this episode.moreless
