S02E21 - 94 Meetings with Christopher Murray

Episode Summary

Ga-Zoinks-Bo!!! Rally the troops, it's all hands on deck! We need everyone with a brain and a pulse to join courageous hosts Mark and Allen as they tackle "94 Meetings", episode 21 of season 2. We'll get through this, people... divide and conquer.

Episode Notes

This week, Mark and Allen break down the Episode that finally introduces us to April's family and casa Ludgate!  Forced to deal with 93 meetings in a single day (due to a mistake by a guilty and embarrassed April), Ron enlists the aid of April, Andy, and Ann.  As the day progresses, meetings are handled with mixed results: Ron just silently listens saying as little as possible, and is on the verge of snapping; April embraces complete fantasy (e.g. Ron is dead and she's his daughter); Andy struggles to not make promises (and is also just Andy); and after revealing she is a nurse, Ann provides several free medical consults.  Meanwhile, Leslie attempts to help Ron, but her first meeting reveals that Turnbill Mansion is being altered by Jessica Wicks while planning an extravagant birthday party for her new husband, the wealthy Nick Newport Sr, founder of Sweetums. Leslie and Tom spring into action to mitigate the damage as best they can. They find several extreme alterations are already done, and Leslie is outraged to learn Jessica plans to demolish a gazebo in the backyard.  Viewers, we have never avoided the tough questions, and we're not starting now, such as... Will April earn back Ron's trust? How can Leslie prevent the destruction of the gazebo? Does Andy promise away the entire city? Will Tom get sufficient time to suck up to Jessica Wicks? Can Ron make it through the day without exploding?  Stay tuned folks, this will be a doozy!  Many thanks to our sponsor, the one and only Sweetums:  "If you can't beat 'em, Sweetums!"
