2️⃣ And it’s actually a very good a-story. Clever, interesting, funny. It gives #JaneSibbett (#SantaBarbara, #HermansHead) more to do than usual, and she’s great as Laurie tries desperately to save the day for her idiot boss.

3️⃣ Question: Did Teddy and Laurie go on their date, between episodes? Direct reference is made to Esther Luna, so we know this story directly follows the previous one. In both production order and airdate order. But no mention is made of the date?
