Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Ashley Tisdale ("Hellcats") Guest Stars

Jimmy's spirits are low when Sabrina's relationship with Wyatt becomes serious, so Virginia and Burt convince him to create a make-believe girlfriend to make her jealous. Barney invites Jimmy to his improv class, where he meets Mary-Louise (guest star Ashley Tisdale) who agrees to play along with his plan to win over Sabrina. But when their acting becomes too convincing and Sabrina falls for their fake relationship, all plans might backfire on Jimmy in the all-new "Jimmy's Fake Girlfriend" episode of RAISING HOPE airing Tuesday, Feb. 14 (9:31-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (HOP-214) (TV-PG D, L, V)

Isn't there a promo shot from this season (older Hope, store manager part of the main cast)?

I hope Ashley Tisdale shows up again. She was great.

Burt almost choking Jimmy out.

Since Sabrina has shorter hair that is a promo for this Season.

Great episode. Poor guy finally gets some action.

I thought for sure that was going to end up being a dream sequence. I was surprised they didn't drag her response out at least until the next episode.

Yeah, I guess you're right. I'm used to seeing Hope looking a bit older with longer hair. I hope they don't end up replacing her like on Modern Family.

Was Barney made a full cast member sometime after the start of the second season?

Great episode. They've gotta stop with the insert shots of the baby though. That's getting old. I know it's called Raising Hope but...

That was great. Kudos to the writers for not dragging out the Jimmy/Sabrina thing for too long and actually coming up with a creative way to get them together. I love that Jimmy always tries to do the right thing. Tons of laughs and a lot of heart. I got a kick out of Hope's reaction to Sabrina running out of the auditorium. Tisdale delivered in the laughs department as well.

And if they do replace her, hopefully it won't be with one of the butt ass ugliest kids on the planet.

At the very least - Tisdale should become a recurring character.

Awesome ep. I really didn't expect the ending since they are always faking us out. Glad they haven't dragged it out longer.

It was a good way to get them together. I liked how the play incorporated scenes from the past (like halloween when he was batman)

Honestly if that was the finale of the show - I would feel good about it.
