State of the Shea Pt. 65: Hundreds of Words for the 100th Episode (“Hot and Bothered”)

Meanwhile, I had an idea on how to get this post up “quickly” (stop laughing!) once I got time to write it: Keep it ‘100, as the kids say. 

In other words… in honor of “Hot and Bothered” being TGD’s 100th episode, keep the discussion of each little arc to around 100 words. Oh, and if I can find an power-related analogy for each arc– to correspond with the overarching theme of keeping the lights (and the A/C) on in the blazing heat– all the better. (I think I succeeded in that regard; you know where to find me if you disagree!)

TEN FAVORITE QUOTES FROM EPISODE #100…

“If you need to… you can borrow my hoodie” (Shaun to Lea)

“Blackout, schmackout… We’ve got to celebrate Art’s 100th!” (Guy w/the cake)

“You’re not old!” (Shaun to his and Powell’s POTW)

“We need to talk about why I don’t like you.” (Shaun to Powell)

I am injured.” /“You were… you’re not anymore.” (Lim/Powell)

“You had a vision board?” (Asher to Morgan)

“She’s contrary.”/ “Oh… kind of sounds like someone we know?” /“Yes, but I like Morgan.” (Shaun/Lea)

“So who did you kidnap?” (Jerome to Asher & Morgan)

“We were like two popsicles in a freezer…” /“Popsicles?” /“Metaphor.” (Glassman/Shaun)

“He’s all yours, Starsky” (Morgan to Asher)*

= given this line, isn’t it a bummer that Lea’s Striped Tomato (which pays homage to the 70s Starsky & Hutch TV series) wasn’t the car being driven?

(Apologies for the minimal screenshots and overused promo stills- another time-saving effort!)
