Episode Summary & Review
Summary
When Michael learns that the company stock has been unfrozen, he decides to sell a little to buy a car. Unbeknownst to him and despite warnings from their attorney, the rest of the family sell off their stock as well and they lose control of the company. Meanwhile, Lucille 2 is back, only to discover Buster is dating the new secretary.
Our Take
A busy episode that juggles the stock sale fallout with Buster’s love triangle, and mostly keeps all the plates spinning. Lucille 2’s return gives Tony Hale plenty to work with, and the family’s collective self-sabotage lands some of the season’s better running gags. A couple of threads feel thin, but the pacing rarely slackens. Solid, funny, worth your time.
