Saw the hooking giving Runkle a blowjob and being a transsexual a mile away, but it was still hilarious.

The Runkle stuff was a gold mine.

I also liked the cop.

Sam: You ever shoot a guy?
Cop: Yeah once, it was kind of fucked up too. It was a kid. I thought he was holding a gun, turned out to be an ipod touch.
Sam: Was he black?
Cop: Was he black? Of course he was black. Why do you think I shot first?

at the Mangina making it's triumphant comeback.

It was a fun and silly episode. I loved Runkle crying in the backseat.

Runkles crying was funny, but the tranny angle is tired out - predictable and boring.

I seem to remember in the old days Runkle sometime was barely in an episode, if at all. I like his character, but the Runkle hijinks have gotten way way out of hand. The best use of him was that subplot with his hot secretary. Seems like in EVERY episode now, he's humiliated sexually, and often ends up running around naked and screaming. It's enough already, getting tired.

At least they let Marcy and Stu sit out this episode. Funniest episode in awhile though.
