This episode introduces some new characters, and they are all a complete hoot!
Leslie Jones absolutely shines here. As do Con O'Neill and Fred Armisen. For a show with such an ensemble cast, it's amazing how they give everyone a moment in the spotlight.
We start to see the plot arc for our characters come into view. The show stays funny, but we start layering in interpersonal conflicts, danger, and romance. This is the episode that really feels like it launches the season. Everything after this one becomes so addictive and involving, and it's all set up by this episode.
As usual, there's plenty of fish-out-of-water type comedy and ever-more queerness. But the writing team on this show is very queer and very diverse, so the jokes never punch down.
