I don't get the negative reviews.
I thought the episode took some huge steps towards exploring the relationship between Bob and his mother and showed a perfect example of what I love the most about the show; the love and support the Belchers have for each other.
Seeing the kids (specially Louise) supporting Bob through their trip in the cemetery was sweet, especially knowing what they "sacrified" for this ocasion.
The most outstanding moment for me was Bob gently smiling at the sight of his kids enjoying themselves in the snow, clearly relieved of the pressure he felt by thinking of himself a bad person for not visiting his mom's grave in 30+ years. Truly a beautiful moment that even brought a tear to my eyes.
However, I must say I wasn't much of a fan of Teddy's B plot and found quite surreal that two adults can't read a map or that Bob couldn't even remember what his mother's grave looks like.
All in all, I'd say this is one of the better episodes of this season.
