This is my favorite Fosters episode. My favorite parts are the Hot In Topeka and Piere parts. Me and my friend repeat the quotes from those parts a lot and laugh out loud to them

This in my opinion was the funniest episode they ever created. It was completely stupid and utterly brilliant at the same time. Who would have thought mere boredom could have made for an entire episode's plot AND be funny?

The Topeka line will probably go down as their best punchline. I personally laughed the hardest when Mac and Bloo first realized they were home alone and just randomly ran around screaming going "BLAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH".

It was just so weird for Mac to totally flip out and be the one to start screwing around, I also loved his response when he saw Bloo with the piere make up in the bathroom. "What are you doing?"

that was a great reaction.

I too loved the "how do you play with these things", it's such an odd question concerning stuffed toys. Another favorite part of mine is when Mac reads Coco's diary and it just reads Coco, and yet Mac reads it REALLY fast anyway.

The ball scene was great too.

"Play ball in the house?"

*throws ball*

"THIS IS BORING"

"I KNOW"

I tend to underrate this episode a lot, I think possibly due to just how unpreposessing the premise is, but reading you guys talk about it does serve to remind me how well the team did turning that simplicity into the episode's greatest virtue. Freed from concerns such as plot development, the writers let the characterisation drive this episode, allowing them to have a lot of fun with Mac and Bloo's personalities as well as reinforcing their relationship as best buds.

I agree with Mr Marshmallow's picks for top scenes, too; their frantic last-gasp efforts to do something awesome in the final two minutes are hilarious, just because their attempts to have fun become so self-defeatingly stressful. The delivery of "THIS IS BORING!!" and "I KNOW!!" cracks me up because of the tone of stark terror and horrified realisation in their screams.

And I empathise - goofing off is a serious business.

Edit - Ooh, yeah, 50th post!! I am a n00b no longer; after four months, I have finally attained "Settling In"!!

Man, I need to post more...
