This episode is lol

I actually don't really dislike the episode despite it being one of the most flawed episodes of the series. But I don't know. I mean it's clearly not a good episode at all, but I'm just drawn to how braindead it all is. I've thought it for a while and I'm glad you brought it up.

So many flaws plague the episode. Zoey is too dumb to confront Mike about tripping Cameron, Mal is not convincing in covering his tracks at all and this looks worse due to him being main antagonist ("Sorry, guys, a bear chased me"), Gwuncan was way too quick of a break up, Duncan was pretty out of character to not care about Gwen despite previously saving her from leeches, Cameron selfishly abandons Sierra to let her fend off wild animals by herself, Sierra is way too uncomfortable to watch, and Courtney missed Scott while he went on exile which was too sudden while also giving a line about leaving Gwen to get killed that is way too over interpretive. So basically, 7 out of 10 people were really dumbed down. I mentioned in my AS review that most of the cast are dumbed down at some point or another, and no example is truer than in this episode. That's what makes it such a guilty pleasure for me. It may be the first episode when AS was losing its love, but what a way of entering into trashy material! The episode made me laugh multiple times too from most characters. Even MAL was pretty funny with how idiotic, careless, and hasty he is. I really shouldn't enjoy watching this episode. It's fundamentally horrible and without it, a lot of problems in the long run like Mal's intelligence, Zoey's naivete, Cameron's meanness, Sierra's creepiness, Gwen's mixture of personalities, and Scourtney rushing itself, probably wouldn't stick out as badly. But I can't help it. It's The Room of TD episodes.

Rating: 5/10
