Community 1.24

English as a Second Language

- Better than the last episode, which was a lot of fun but also a bit of a gimmick; this one was much more solidly set in the reality of the show
- Annie doesn't want the group to break up; she learns that Senor Chang doesn't have the proper credentials to teach Spanish and rats him out; the dean brings in a real Spanish teacher to administer the final; it looks like the study group will be retaking the class next semester
- loved the group dynamics in this one
- the scene where Jeff reveals what Annie did and tells them not to look at her for fear that they will fall pray to her sad face and forgive her is priceless
- the subplot with Troy and the plumber did nothing for me; it felt like it was trying to reference something else, probably a movie, but I'm not sure what if anything it was calling back to
- possibly my favorite episode of the season, if not it is right up there very close to the top
- just one more to go in Season 1
