Summary
Pam makes a deal that puts everyone in danger. Archer dons his slightly darker black suit to save the day.
Our Take
A middling outing that leans hard on Pam’s escalating coke habit for laughs, and it mostly works because she’s the one character who can carry that kind of chaos. The yakuza plot is thin and the episode runs out of steam before the ending, but there are enough sharp one-liners to keep it moving. Fine for fans, nothing here will convert anyone.
