  • Notes for 36ABF16 (Bart 'n' Fr

    Well that felt like kind of a nothing of an episode. Nice as it is to
    explore unusual character pairings, Bart's role in the title one
    didn't
    seem right at all, the plot kind of went nowhere, and the B story was
    a
    little amusing but somewhat obvious. I'm also not sure why this is
    TV-14.

    I thought the first act was good. I guess CBG's wife was minding the
    Android Dungeon while he played games at the other store? ;)

    As for the TV-14 rating, I wonder if it was because of the weird drinks
    and pill-popping (despite being vitamins or "mini-burgers") that
    happened
    later at the mansion.

    The rest of the episode had Bart playing a role that we might expect
    Lisa
    to play... assistant to a scientist... but I felt like they actually
    lampooned this juxtaposition a little bit, with Lisa showing her
    disdain
    for the pairing while trying to get a scholarship from one of the other billionaires.
