We’re seeing a whole lot of Puck in this week’s discussion of Season 3, Episode 4: From a Six to a Nine and Back Again. We speculate on the meaning of that episode title while also growing increasingly frustrated with Puck’s shenanigans, just as the rest of the roommates do. Puck goes to court to get his order for DUI school moved from Alameda County to San Francisco, gets incredibly butthurt over no one (except Rachel) going to a soapbox derby video event, opens up about his upbringing, and does his damndest to offend anyone and everyone in the house with his utter lack of care for anyone but himself. We also see Judd try to find romance with Mohammed’s friend, while also lamenting his perceived plight as a straight male in the dating scene of 1994, and Pedro celebrates his birthday with his roommates (minus Puck). Other topics include kids getting vaccinated, elderly pets, DUI laws in California, Rebecca’s upcoming national pool tournament, recent encounters with COVID, and the behaviors of budding conspiracy theorists and incels. Make yourself some French toast, fry up some plantains, and dig in with us!
