Best character
I love all of the dares between Jonah and Amy. They have so much fun in this episode and it’s so great. This doesn’t make sense to say in this section but I didn’t have a specific character I wanted to choose.

Best quotes and one liners
JEFF: As most of you may have heard, our company spokesman has been accused of some improprieties.
GARRETT: By improprieties, you mean killing and eating people, right? Or is there a tax evasion thing going on as well?
JEFF: The killing and eating. I can’t speak to his tax situation.
ANNOUNCER: Police discovered a secret dungeon where the actor would videotape himself dismembering and devouring his victims, often while in cloud costume.
GLENN: Oh, God.
DINA: I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again. You are a terrible judge of character. Also you have a weak chin and you can’t dance.
GARRETT: She is breaking an unspoken social contract. You show one photo. One. And we all say it’s the cutest baby we ever seen even if it’s creepy, which it is, because it’s a shrunken-down human, and then we all move on with our lives.
SANDRA: I mean, I have a ton of photos of my dogs, but no one wants to see those. Right?
GARRETT: Right.
SANDRA: Yeah. Not even the one where they’re dressed as Ewoks.
GARRETT: All right, you know I got to see that. Okay, come on now. Oh, no.
SANDRA: Yeah.
GARRETT: Little Ewok dog. You stealing a speeder? You can’t drive a speeder, Ewok dog.
DINA: Look, people, if you haven’t done any drugs in the last 72 hours, you have nothing to worry about.
JUSTINE: What about way too much wine? I’m so bad.
DINA: Justine, you’re not an alcoholic. Stop bragging.
Final thoughts and fun facts
The sleeping woman featured in the mural that Amy and Jonah are painting over is Nichole Sakura, who plays Cheyenne. I’ve actually never noticed this until now.
When Jonah approaches Amy in just an apron, a holdall can be seen behind her, branded with the word Oceanic. Oceanic is a generic airline which film makers use so that they don’t incriminate any specific airline. For example, it’s the airline in Lost (2004).
Amy wears a different name tag in each episode. At the beginning of this episode, her name tag says “Ella” and after the opening credits her name tag changes to “Heidi”.
At the end of every episode, the card for the production company Spitzer Holding Company features a variety of items they specialise in. In this episode, they list Horse Representation, Petroleum, and Seafood.
