I loved this so much. Classic, perfect High Maintenance episode. I love how they weave the storylines together, it always feels so natural and yet so unique. I'm so glad that these folks are allowed to do their thing for our benefit.

Oh god I loved this so fucking much. I was weirded out a bit when they cut away halfway through the first story but I love how they interwoven the whole thing and it all came together. And to have the entire TAL crew, I mean, this is just pandering and by all means keep pandering to me.

I missed this show so much, and I loved this episode. I paused through the credits to see which voices I was recognizing from the TAL editorial meeting. I could only recognize Zoey Chace's voice as her own and couldn't assign names to the voices.

Nothing had better happen to that dog. I love her, and I love The Guy's love of her.
