I wasn't completely enthusiastic about the previous episode, but the eighteenth one really buried it. The writer should have started banging his head against the wall as soon as he first thought of writing an episode about guarding the captain's house. There is hardly anything to be gained from such a clichéd matter (unless with a brilliant script), and the result showed that. Damn it, even the mandatory escape of the pet was included... // "Are you making holes? You have too much paper there." "I wouldn't say that." / "Amy, me and blind Charles will search the surroundings." / "Damn it, Charles, it's a raccoon!" "No..."

With the seventeenth episode, the creators didn't quite hit the mark for me. I was deciding between three and four stars, and only my non-conflicting, sensitive nature decided to round up. 4*- // "And you're bragging about it?" "No... It's a breakup for me."

The drawback of the sixteenth episode was the case of the missing hobo, which I didn't find too interesting. Fortunately, everything was saved by the battle with phobias and Hitchcock's secret operation. // "The stapler, scissors, and also rubber bands... He knows me inside out." / "Look at him. He's in a mess, he hates having to stand."

Either I ride on some wave of euphoria, or the creators really succeeded and put together another very good episode. I was especially entertained by the ending, which felt like the nineteenth minute of the third period of a hockey game against Canada, where they are losing by a goal and failed with the accusation that the goalkeeper is using equipment with inappropriate dimensions. // "Did you know that nuts can be juiced, cooo?" / "Hitchcock and Scully just set the sink on fire." "Perfect! Let's take advantage of that!"

The fourteenth episode was very sneaky, the plot was rather subtly creeping along and suddenly I realized that I was oddly enjoying myself. Each of the three actions was funny, the best part of it all was that the episode worked perfectly as a whole. // "Rosa?!" "Charles, you're completely naked." / "I'm not as sexually active as you think, I only slept with four hundred women." / "He had sex with my turtle?!"

The change of environment in the episode definitely didn't harm, the only thing that really didn't please me was the visit of the captain's sister. The creators have definitely succeeded now, they have provided me with quality entertainment for four episodes in a row, so I just hope they will keep it up. // "Excuse me?! I wasn't entertaining, you take that back!" / "Was I smiling for no reason?"

I really enjoyed this. I had a feeling I would like the episode a lot when it turned out that Jake and Captain Holt would be working together on a case again, but when Simon, Balthazar, and Penelope joined in, it was decided. // "Time to move on, that's what Jackson would want." "Jason." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever." / "Hey, we have a ton of work, stop watching funny dog videos!" / "Case!"

Based on my experiences with both previous episodes, I compared my impressions to riding a roller coaster, but the eleventh episode remained on level ground with the tenth one. The hostage case was particularly tricky, and I must appreciate how Charles managed to deal with a very difficult situation. // "Are you having a toasted baguette for breakfast?" "Yeah, but I should eat more vegetables, so I ordered some pepper cheese on top." / "There is nothing scarier than the urban judicial system." / "I'm going to harass the old priest to get my sperm back!"

As I wrote in a comment about the previous Halloween episode, I really like these thematic episodes. That's why I was looking forward to it again this time and I was not disappointed. The creators made an effort again, the traditional fight went well, and I had a great time. // "I'm not a gigolo:" "Sure, hey there, you b****."

I'm not as die-hard a fan of Die Hard as Jake, but I still really enjoyed the tenth episode and once again savored the rollercoaster ride of quality that the creators so willingly take me on. Last time, we were down in the dumps, and now I'm looking at the world from on high. I really loved this. // "Christmas is canceled, Charles ruined it." / "No, no! Jake, they have Gina!" "I know, we're watching the same thing!"
