Nonsensical craziness

You can't make sense of this season finale (which gave me series finale vibes). There's just a ton of nonsense thrown in here that makes you laugh and also go "HUH??"

I really wish we would've gotten some closure on Cubert, that looked like a neat little plot device, unless Archer's hallucinations were an extension of that.

Per the subtitles (on Hulu) the episode title is taken from the song "Robert de Niro" by Queen Sarah Saturday, which plays during the flashback montage near the end. I kept waiting for an appearance or voiceover by Robert de Niro, but noooooooope!

....takes us right to the beginning. However, why is it called Robert De Niro?

I'm not reviewing the plot or covering anything, I laughed, I cried. It is my favourite episode of Archer, a great great ending of a great season.

I love this show. It was such a great way to end the season. Touching moments peppered with nonsense and dismissive quips culminates in a funny and explosive end. So many catchphrases I couldn't keep up.

What a show

I enjoyed the last 3 seasons, however I was never a fan of the whole "diving into Archer's psyche" while he's in a coma. I shouldn't overthink, but it does all come down to "it's all a dream".

However, after 3 seasons ánd 3 years in-series, the payoff in this season finale is huge. We get to witness these real heartfelt moments in the show. However few and far apart they are, they never fail to hit.

The score is just what I felt during the ending montage right before the final scene. Feels. What a ride it has been these past 10 seasons. You're a badass Archer. Duh. Can't wait for what's next.
