Drunk Baron determined to try pizza pie was the best part of the episode.
The Baron (or Barren) is a riot in this episode - particularly his pizza and glo-stick obsessions.
The show has really been rolling the last few episodes. It's starting to feel like the US version of The Office where it gradually pulls away from the original.
So, let that be a lesson to you, children, don't drink drugs.
The end of this episode shocked me so much my mouth stayed wide opened for nearly 30 seconds... :scream:
WHAT THE FFFFFFFUUUCCCKKK
"Do you know what I've always wanted to try?"
Laszlo, not missing a beat: cOpRoPhiLiA

[8.0/10] This was easily the best episode of the show yet. It so perfectly captured the strange but fun vibe of having a night on the town with That One Friend, and perfectly melds it with the vampire shtick of the show.
Doug Jones is a real get here. He plays the “boss who’s trying to be fun” role well, and manages to emote through the prosthetics in the way only he can. His desire to cut loose, have fun, sing karaoke, and eat “pizza pie” amid his blood-sucking and domineering is great. Even better is the gang’s reactions to him, initially bemoaning his inability to fit in, but eventually warming up to him as everyone loosens up. At the same time, the episode has some fun with the group “drinking” humans who are drunk and/or on drugs, and thus leaving our vamp friends feeling the effects.
At the same time, it does a nice job of using the throughline of the gang plotting to kill The Baron. The abortive attempts in the early going are plenty amusing. The scene where The Baron tells them he was thinking of killing them and they do the same is some perfectly awkward, cringe-y stuff with great comic relief in the end. And the fact that Guillermo kills The Baron by accident in the finish is a great punchline and bit of comic catharsis after all the close calls and misdirects throughout the episode.
What I enjoyed most about this one is that the comedy came less from traditional jokes, and more from the sort of comic energy, awkwardness, and relatableness of the situation. This may have been an alternatively fun and deadly outing for The Baron, but it was the show’s best outing so far!
