It's a timeless tale; the boy lies, which causes the girl to snoop, and suddenly both parties are in the wrong. Personally, I think you never know what you're going to find when you go snooping through your significant other's stuff, so Jules' really took her life in her hands there.
Jules: At least none of these are weird sex things. Tom: Uh, two of them can be. Jules: Which one? No, I don't want to know. It's the fedora, right?
Jules' and Grayson's conflict was decidedly silly, but it was rooted in the deeper issue of him not trusting her with his secrets. Jules is a bit of a blabber mouth after all. I thought it was definitely a touching moment that she ended up lying for his dignity at the end of the episode, even if everyone could see right through her excuses.
Even sillier than a Rigatoni Quartet, was Andy's concept of "secret treats" for men who always let their women win fights. A happy wife might make a happy home, but Andy might be kidding himself if he thinks stale marshmallows are the only thing keeping him sane.
Travis' secret PS4 purchase turns out to be way more stressful as a secret than an open admission, which is why he ends up telling Laurie about it. I'm not all that surprised that she wasn't angry with him, even after he lied. For all her hysterics, Laurie really seems like she'd be the most chill girlfriend/wife of the bunch.
Ellie, the poor darling, spent most of the night being tormented by Laurie and her band of mommy twitter followers as they dressed up in identical outfits with their kids.
We're even wearing the same unisex cologne. "Both" by Bruce Jenner.
I have to side with Ellie on this one; matching outfits are weird and borderline bad parenting. I don't care if it's an Armani suit, if a kid rolls up wearing the same exact clothes as his mom, he's going to get beat up on the playground that afternoon. Harsh truth.
Tonight's episode was a bit of ridiculous fun, which was an nice break from the slightly heavier episodes we've had the past few weeks. I'm all ready for more touching moments between our favorite characters, but every now and then you just need a good fluff episode.
Don't forget to watch Cougar Town online via TV Fanatic to figure out where exactly Andy hides all his marshmallows and check in next week for a review of Cougar Town Season 6 Episode 9!
Francis: Then be my wife! ~
Mary: I can't. We've been over this already. Too much has passed between us. ~
Francis: Too much you blame me for. While Conde remains untarnished. And now you want to go to him, thinking it will erase your pain. It won't Mary. I won't let you do it. No. I forbid it.
Rick Castle: I don't know how you did it. ~
Kate Beckett: What? ~
Rick Castle: Kept it together the two months I was missing. Two days I didn't know where you were and it nearly killed me. ~
Jules: You know, since the day that we met, I spent most of my craziest times with you. ~
Laurie: Oh like the time we broke all the penises off the statues! Or when we went bar hopping and we stole that scary cop's gun? Or when we broke into Tom's house and we locked his girlfriend in the closet! ~
Jules: Wow, we sound totally insane when you string them all together.
Capt. Lance: The reason why I want to open up this bottle and crawl inside is because of what you did to us. I loved your sister. I love your mom. So much like each other, you know, these wild spirits. But, you and I, we had something more than that, because we were the ones that were alike. And we had a trust, and we had a bond, and you broke it. And, I don't know how you could do that to us. But I'm gonna survive this. I mean, I got to. It's my baby girl. But what you've done, I don't know how I'm going to live through this.
Oscar: Hot Casey from downstairs might be stopping by.
Dani: So you've moved from flirting in the elevator to an actual date?
Oscar: Sort of, I sneak some of my mail into her mailbox to force her to come by the apartment.
Dani: Aw, all the great romances start with the words "sneak" and "forced."
Raj: The guy who plays Jon Snow was a jerk and we still watch Game of Thrones. ~
Leonard: He was a jerk because you rear-ended him. ~
Raj: I was distracted. It's weird seeing a member of the Night's Watch with kayak strapped to his car.
Jake: Abby, you never got in my way. I did, and us splitting was a huge wake up call for me and I finally got my head out of my ass, but I totally get what you were saying.
Patrick Jane: What about your family? ~
Teresa Lisbon: Oh they wouldn't care. I just talked to them at the hotel. They found the mini bar. They're like cavemen arguing over a dead antelope.
Sherlock: I worried in the aftermath of trauma that you might be ... overadjusting. That moving back might not be the progression you believe it to be, but it might be a regression, a retreat into the safety of the known. I suppose I just wanted to be sure that I hadn't been too quick to encourage. That I haven't unwittingly cast myself in the role of an enabler.
