The first thing that struck me as it felt like I had already seen this episode. I actually had to check twice that I didn’t get the wrong episode. It just felt so familiar with the opening scene and the motorcycle. The overall story is fools. From foolish motorcycle tricks, to a dating experience that is rather crappy, to someone tricking someone else to meet up with them. Even Eddie gets in on the action of being foolish, especially in front of one of Christopher’s teachers. Finally, a woman is foolish in not wondering why she can’t remember anything. All the stories added something, even if at times it seemed like it had been done before.
Overall, I enjoyed this episode as it has a lot of little stories that all centered around the theme of fools. I like when this series does themed episodes. The writers usually get these episodes right and generally seem to have a lot of fun with them.
