This will always be remembered as the episode of The Middle that introduced Bernie the Bookmark.
One of the things I like about this sitcom is that all five lead characters -- Frankie, Mike, Axl, Sue and Brick -- can carry a comedic premise or even an entire episode.
This episode's main storyline is about Sue's rough adjustment to college life at East Indiana State, but just when it seemed like the writers were neglecting Brick as much as his parents, magic happened at the Orson High pep rally.
The scene where Brick hijacks the rally was the episode's funniest moment. Every school needs a giant human bookmark to bring a little long-overdue pep to the library.
The main plot led to a sweet ending between the other four Hecks that was as sentimental as a Modern Family resolution. But we all know who the star was: Nobody puts Bernie in a corner!
