Fresh Off the Boat: Dribbling Tiger, Bounce Pass Dragon

April 17, 2015 5:15 PM - Season 1, Episode 12

Louis and Jessica get pressured into volunteering at the kids' schools because budget cuts have forced Principal Thomas (Maria Bamford) into enlisting parents to help out around school. Louis coaches basketball, which shows Eddie \a whole other side of his dad -- a former semi-pro basketball player back in Taiwan -- while Emery and Evan see a side of Jessica they wish they hadn't when she grudgingly takes on producing their school play, and puts her own spin on it.

Music from this episode: Gravediggaz - "Pass The Shovel" -- bonus track on the European editions of 6 Feet Deep, released in 1994.

I really liked this one. Nice Shaolin soccer homage, and Eddie showing some real leadership.
