Oh, Leslie!
Chris’s attempts to cheer April up were somewhat horrifying (well, pathetic, really, but impersonating Andy?) Ron found his chairs being taken up by that lifestyle guru horrifying, which was amusing.
And The Princess Bride cozzies! In the midst of a total spiral. We went to break with me going ‘those two idiots’ at peaked!drunk!Leslie/Ben deciding to get a tattoo. Fortunately Ann was bossy enough to save them – Never send a husband to do a best friend’s job, indeed. (LAND MERMAID?) She deserved her reward for knowing who Leslie was and reminding her of it in smooching and in April being nice to her.
I think the final pumpkin carver joke would have landed better if they hadn’t got the same person as did the Gerbich faces to do it, Or let’s pretend Leslie asked Larry to do it and didn’t give him the credit (which seemed unlikely).
Surely they can’t let Leslie be out in the political wilderness for too long...

Despite April, Ron and Donna’s best efforts, the intro was heavy on American football and real life players being awkward so let's move on.
I expected a better class of rubbish collector from Eagleton.
Anyway, Leslie vs. ignorance, fear and self-interest, and that a Leslie who’s not worried about consequences...even though there obviously would be some. And yes, plenty of points were made about the gross unfairness Leslie had to face.
Finally they’ve decided to do something with the fact that two babies are on the way at about the same time. I thought we were going to have competitive parenting, but it swerved into Chris’s anxieties, actually, it didn’t swerve, I just wasn’t paying enough mind to the running parenting guide books. But how many real life children has Ron brought up, Chris?
I don’t blame April for taking her time to be able to distil Donna, as the woman loves to throw out all kinds of unexpected randomness. Craig made a welcome return – it’s the last words with him.
I enjoyed Tom being able to successfully rebrand fluoride. TWICE.
That lime trouser suit Leslie was forced to wear was heinous.
The Musketeers was scotched for a special about Muhammed Ali, so I finally went back to me DS9 DVDs on my new DVD player. I'll post my thoughts eventually, I hope.
