Use this thread to discuss 08x20: Lend a Hand.
Out of all the episodes up to this point, I think this one has suffered the most from multiple viewings. I used to really like this one, but I don't really care that much for it now. I'm not even that bothered by the fact that Borelli was nothing like he was in "The Consultant" (though I do think it might have worked better if he was playing a different character, since it wouldn't be the first time someone played two characters on this show), but nearly everything else about that story seemed so forced. His constant controlling was so over-the-top and cringey, as was Hawkeye's constant bickering with him, and the ending where they have to work together... None of that worked for me. The best parts of that story were when the Corporal scolded them for being so petty.
As for the side story with the party, it did have some mildly funny moments, but was mostly forgettable.
