Oh boy. I can't wait to see how Lars disappoints me yet again by being a trash man.

Honestly, one thing I can give Season 4 credit for is that Lars hasn't been nearly as bad as previously.

It's nice to see that Lars has become a better person over time. And it's good to at least know that him being a no-show wasn't of his own volition.

If he were kidnapped, why would the ube roll have ended up in the trash can in front of Sour Cream's house?

Well he decided not to show up, then got kidnapped.

Eh, fair I guess. I don't really blame Lars for chickening out of it, though. I think this is the first episode where I kind of empathized with him above a superficial level.

Well, here's my ideas on why the ube's in the trash:

A: Lars was psyching himself up before going in, got captured by our silhouetted snatchers, and the ube either fell in the trash by coincidence, or one of them threw it in there for whatever reason.

B: Lars actually did chicken out at the last second, threw the ube in the trash, and got kidnapped while he was walking home.

I don't either. It's just kind of sad.

Seems kind of overly cruel to blame Lars for his own anxiety problems.

Especially since his actions aren't hurting others this time, just himself.

Except disappointing Sadie and Steven, but saying that's his fault veers into "You should be happy so you won't make people who care about you sad."

[up][up]Might depend on how many of them are self inflicted to begin with, but yeah I agree.

[up] And, if anything, that's what Sadie learns this episode, on the sense of "be happy for your own sake"

I just noticed this background in "Steven's Dream" has a reference to MST3K joke.

This episode was great. Best Lars episode by a mile. Easily makes up for the last one.

I liked this episode. It had some nice Lars and Sadie development. I wonder if it will lead to some eventual resolvement of their current relationship, one way or the other. But I think theirs is different from most Will They or Won't They? dynamics, in that this one actually has some valid reasons for them not being together, as opposed to them just not being able to communicate to save their lives.

Plus, Sadie's cheek scar is my favorite Continuity Nod in this show.

As for those silhouette characters, they seem to be going for a Brains and Brawn dynamic (visually at least). I wonder if the show will flip it and have the tiny one with the wings be the enforcer while the big one is the smart one.
