Aaaahhh! I saw this ep the other night when it first aired, and I'm still floored.
By the second act, I had come to accept that this just going to be a pretty mediocre episode. I mean, I liked the "My Guy" speech and Bloo acting out that two-person conversation with himself (though, surprisingly, I found Mac's version even funnier), I appreciated the cute play on the concept of infidelity, and words cannot even describe how hilariously adorable Princess Bloo is. But other than that stuff, I wasn't terribly impressed. The plot was looking to be not all that amazing, I didn't like that Barry kid even as an antagonist, and I was a wee bit disappointed that Wilt, Ed, and Coco didn't have prominent roles as I particularly like the episodes that have more of an ensemble feel. I was also a little bothered by the references to past episodes. I know, I know, this isn't the first time a Foster's episode has referenced previous episodes, and usually I don't take issue with it at all. But this time, for some reason it felt blatant and, I dunno...forced. It was like "Hey, remember this? Remember that?" But then...but then, almost out of nowhere, they pull a "Remember...THIS !" BAM! POW! It hit me so fast and so hard that I didn't see it coming 'til it came. Freakining brilliant how we were so cunningly deceived into expecting something tame before getting something INCREDIBLE. Sure, I guess there were clues along the way- the name "Barry" (which I did notice but simply chalked up to forgetful writers overlooking that other one-shot character) being the big one- but if you're anything like me, you only noticed them in retrospect. One of my new favorite episodes! Awesome! Genius! Amazing! I loved it too much, and I want to watch it agaaaaaaaaain! |

Great episode!

How, exactly? There have been other people who claimed to know right from the beginning, but I don?t see how that would be possible. Unless people read about it in advance, I don?t believe that was any real evidence in the beginning to prove that ?Barry? was Berry.

^ LOL I'm a retarded and didn't give the name much thought. I just was like "omg lol another rich blonde kid."
I was kinda sad Barry wasn't real. I liked his hair and attitude. XD |

One of my family members is named Barry; he has no use for the show. Had "Barry" not turned out to be "Berry", I was going to tease him unmercifully.

XD I think the episode might have had more impact on me if I hadn't gone to spoil myself by reading what was posted here and by checking through the screencaps. XDD
But still, it was a fantastic episode, and I absolutely LOVED the one person dialog that Bloo and Mac both did, it was hilarious! XD And it shows how well they know each other, right down to the corrections of the idioms XDD I don't know how long the voice actors took to pull that off without any mistakes. And Berry's line at the end. XDDD I cracked up SO HARD at the insane grin she pulled RIGHT after the long speech XDDDDDD But ohh man, Bloo, that no good two-timing rotten times two-er! XDDD I love how most of the recent new eps focus on Mac and Bloo's friendship. I'm not complaining. There hasn't been enough of it throughout the ENTIRE series. I think Season 5 might possibly be the best out of all the seasons, just for the sheer hilarity and heart-warming-ness of most of the episodes released so far. I ish a happy Foster fangirl. edit: lol I love how they just grabbed the entire credits list from Good Wilt Hunting and slapped it into this episode without editing it. *rolls eyes* I know because it listed "Socket Tubey's Creator" in the credits and the only mention of that was in GWH. Barry and Berry weren't under Grey DeLisle's credits at all.

Excuse me while I squeal. *does so* =D=D=D
And y'know what? My little sister TOTAL called it. After the first act, Emily said, "It's probably Berry in disguise!" I went-a like, "Ehhhhhhh.....", then she was all, "THINK ABOUT IT." So I did. It made sense...Sorta...But I wasn't convinced. I truely didn't think they'd bring her back, and I didn't peg her as one good at acting. Besides, someone disguised as someone else? In Foster's? Come on! *brick'd by Madame Arty* Oh. Yeah. Then, once Mac started stumbling through the mansion, and that music started playing...WHOO, something was up! As soon as I saw the Bloo stuff, IT WAS TRUTH. =O I looked over at Em, and it still hadn't registered. "EM, DUDE. YOU WERE SO RIGHT." "...What?" "LOOOK." "=O" "=D" "=D" ANYHOW, I cannot tell you how happy seeing Berry again made me. Awesome little villainess! =3 I dun really care if ya dun like 'er. Explain away your dislike, it doesn't matter. It would've been okay in the end no matter what, and it's fun to see obsession like hers. x3

Yes good episode. It was very pleasant to see Berry again (it's been too long) though I had guessed it was her straight away because of the name thing and the fact I'd noticed the Berry thread suddenly come alive. I take it she'd disguised herself as a real person because Duchess recognised him. Even got the rich person smell right. How long were those people kept like that? Ahhh never question the toon.
Speaking of Duchess, good to see her back again and poor old Mac back on the white stuff. What a world!
