1. Earn starts to make a little money
2. Earn tries to pay with $100 bill
3. The crew goes to strip club
This episode becomes more coherent in terms of its core message. Through various events, the characters learn the importance of image, especially Earn. As Earn tries to spend the money that he earned, he goes through racial incidents and ends up overspending to "stunt", or to prove that he's worth the money he's got. Al tells Earn that people treat you better if you act like you are better than them, which is an interesting commentary on status. Earn ends up making a fool out of himself, trying to race a football player. His desire for respect and recognition was portrayed in a comical sense throughout the episode and I love it. Donald Glover keeps doing an amazing job making meaningful episodes with just the right amount of humor.
