Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Andy throws a garden party to impress his parents.
Our Take
Andy’s garden party starts slow, and the Robert California scenes with his wife feel like a different show entirely. But once Dwight hijacks the party planning with his ridiculous etiquette guide, things pick up fast, and the closing reveal about Andy’s parents lands with real sting. A middling episode saved by a strong final act.
