This is an interesting one.
It isn't a crazy standout episode but things are being put into place.
I have to question the motive.
A lot of characters are doing things in this episode and you don't necessarily get an explanation as to why.
Bos seems mad that Diane invited him to the party. Is he mad that it wasn't a date? Mad that he just saw Joe? Or mad that he's being used as a, sort of, party inducer and isn't respected as much?
That's the first confusing motive for me. Why Bos is mad. He doesn't like being a show pony, I guess. Feels he isn't as respected as he was at Cardiff.
Second is, why does Donna lie to Cam about not being able to fire the two guys?
My first instinct is, because Diane suggested perhaps it's not the two guys that are hard to work with but rather Cameron.
So that's why Donna lied?
Okay, I can get that.
But what I don't get is:
Why does Donna tell Cameron she doesn't need to move out quickly anymore? Without even asking Gordon? What triggered that? Did she feel bad about lying? Was she saying that to try and get Cameron out faster?
I don't get the motive on Donna's part to tell Cameron she doesn't have to move out quickly anymore.
Final one-
Why does Cameron take this as a sign that she's losing mutiny? Does she think Donna is symaphizing to hide something else? Why would Donna saying "you don't have to worry about finding a place quickly" lead to Cameron asking "am I losing mutiny?"
I really liked the detail of Gordon sucking at Duck Hunt. Then using Cameron's joke of "shoot them to get them to respect you." And then he actually takes them out to laser tag - literally shooting at them and gaining their respect. But the end, we see Gordon's hand shaking from his condition. And we realize that's why he hasn't been winning in Duck Hunt... great detail. So sad.
