Not her finest moment. i am hoping it is post baby hormones and she is more willing to talk later.

So i guess since Bug was done with Lux, he was free to knock up the coffee girl.

Yeah the entire situation got me to talk about it with my wife (she stopped watching the show in season 1 because she said it was just a bunch of people arguing with each other lol). She said between this episode and the previous ones like the freak out over family night and what not, that it's most likely will be blamed on ppd.

Congratulations Peter Krause! You know play the dumbest guy on TV!

Christina was being pretty immature and I'm guessing hormones played a huge part, but man Adam sure did text-book-fail on that one. Geez.

I couldn't watch it, the whole "I kissed her" storyline was too manufactured, too cliche, and his stupidity too predictable.

Her character is circling the drain between this and all the Max stuff. Ugh!

LOL! What an f-ing DOUCHE! Does he really have any rights to that kid? She was going to put the baby up for adoption ANYWAY and suddenly he now wants $30K?

Is there a single story that isn't depressing on this show?! Why no Thanksgiving episode on a show that is all about family?

Did I miss the part where, "In an attempt to boost his college applications, Drew (Miles Heizer) seeks out extracurricular activities"?

Nope. Unless I just missed it too. Drew wasn't even in the episode. I assume he was having a separate adventure with Haddie.

to Adam for his stupidity and lying to Kristina. I don't blame Kristina for being emotional. She just gave birth to another baby and is in a very volatile state.

But, just to play devil's advocate, if Rebecca was a vengeful bitch, she could probably file a sexual harassment lawsuit against Adam. I could see that as something that would have crossed his mind.

at Bug and Zoe thinking they could play hardball with Joel and Julia for the baby.

I know Amber is just a teenager, but if you choose to move out, you need to be more responsible about managing your money. The fact that she has no clue where her money is going and what bills need to be paid just shows how really immature she is. I was actually getting annoyed when she wouldn't listen to her Mom.
