Rating: 4 Star

In this episode, we find Max juggling an order for kosher cupcakes—because, of course, chaos is the name of the game! This all comes about when Caroline catches a cold and ends up in a rather dubious hospital, where they serendipitously encounter someone in dire need of cupcakes. It doesn’t take a seasoned viewer to notice that Max has a knack for ignoring directions, which inevitably leads to a delightful cascade of comedic mishaps, leaving both Max and Caroline in some rather awkward predicaments.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. The humor was spot-on, and I appreciated how the storyline took unexpected twists and turns, defying the typical setup we often see. It’s a refreshing reminder that sometimes, the best adventures come from the most unpredictable situations!
