2x13 Fundraiser

Another fantastic episode. What sharp, witty writing Abbott Elementary has! And the actors who deliver these great lines are wonderful. No wonder it keeps winning awards!

Melissa being bad at impressions is the new Barbara confusing white/black actor names. I cannot wait to see an episode with Barbara and Melissa beefing. lmao :hear_no_evil:

"Boy, you couldn't sell a scarf to Lenny Kravitz with that pitch.", "She’s still using the tactics of a man that claimed he could turn water into wine and only had 12 friends.", "We sold out faster than a Black politician!", "Conan O’Crien.", the Chris and Liam Hemsworth joke - Every line from Ava this episode has been gold. She has had some interesting character development. The way the writers are slowly revealing the layers of Ava's character, showing how complex she really is, without changing the core characteristics that make her so funny is just phenomenal. Janelle James as is brilliant, she kills it every Wednesday.

"Cats are pescatarians!" "You’re telling me this cat believes in God?" - Jacob and Mr. Johnson co parenting and arguing over that cat is straight comedy.

"Milk propaganda at its finest." - Does Jacob like anything? :thinking:

Gregory actually likes donuts?! I'm impressed.

The Jacob/Gregory scene ending with Mr. Johnson excitedly saying, "the plot thickens" and all while he’s holding the cat. Top tier. I know everyone is rooting for Janine and Gregory, but for the sake of the show, those two do not need to be a couple yet in my opinion.

I like that Janine still ordered those ribs, even though she was warned. One thing about her, she's going to be her authentic self, she doesn't front for anybody. I'm willing to bet that Maurice is going to like the fact Janine got those ribs, "cause it shows she not afraid to be herself". He is literally her Janine's ex in different form.
