...Tonight's episode should have been called "Apt Puppet".

It also could've been called "Two Really Old Guys Try To Fight For Six Minutes".

I did like the sunlit shot of Franz falling.
And that's it. Enough of the molester already.

It also could've been called "Two Really Old Guys Try To Fight For Six Minutes". Actually, out of most of their "draw-out" gags, that was one of their better ones. Pixar did a similar old guy fight in UP, but it wasn't expanded upon.

I laughed at the quick "Silence Of The Lambs" reference.
One of my favorite lines from that movie.

The old guy fight was pretty much the only thing worth watching tonight. It was drawn out, but man was it funny.

I find it amusing ... the show gets hacked on by haters who deride the cutaway jokes and say the show's plots are paper thin.
So, last night, they have a show that was a good 80% plot (albeit one ripped from Apt Pupil ... like they've never done a pop culture-referential plot before) ... and people are busting on it for "dropping the ball".
It entertained me. Was it their best? No. But it wasn't nearly on the toxic, makes-me-want-to-snort-bleach-to-forget-it-all badness of "Brian's Song". Or the painfully slow, just there "Brian & Stewie".
