Episode Summary & Review
Summary
For varying reasons, most of the Bluths (even Steve Holt) feel compelled to run off to Mexico. Michael tries to convince Buster to go to the police.
Our Take
The Mexico premise should be funnier than it plays out, and the split-story structure that plagued this season is already wearing thin here. Michael badgering Buster has a few decent moments, but too many jokes land with a thud. It’s watchable if you’re already committed, just don’t expect the old snap.
