This is the first episode on the second disc! There is a lot to be seen in these 22ish minutes of television. Little nipples is back- and he is holding a grudge. Troy finds a girl that he can take on a date (as long it's within biking distance of his parents' house), and someone in the group might be a homeless bum.
Season 1, Episode 8
"Home Economics"
Jeff gets kicked out of his condo and is living in his car. Abed lets him stay in his dorm room. Annie shows Troy how to impress his date, while being in love with Troy. Pierce joins Vaughn's band, "Some Worries" which makes fun of Britta.
Best Lines
Troy: Annie, say there are two friends and they're in the same class, and one of them wants to ask the other one out on a date. Like a grownup date, but within walking distance of his parents' house.
Troy: I can't believe I misled you like that. Listen, Randi can be the name of a guy or a girl.
Jeff: There's a silver lining here, isn't there? You're attracted to bums.
Britta: What am I supposed to do about that?
Abed: Use your lady parts...Tell him you'll make love to him if he takes a shower and finds a nice place to live.
Pierce: I get it. Your jealous of me.
Vaughn: What? Why?
Pierce: Maybe because when I put on these skinny jeans my (butt) looks like a skinny pumpkin.
Vaughn (singing) Pierce your a "B".
Pierce: I'm Pierce.
Vaughn (signing): Saying goodbye to Britta was the hardest thing to do...
Pierce: Oh, yeah the guy with the tiny nipples you did it with.
Abed: Sometimes I pour hot cocoa mix into cold milk and drink it like a cold hot chocolate. I call it special drink.
Jeff: And someday you will know it by its true name, diabetes.
Jeff: No, your incredulity perplexes me, nerd.
Random Thingamajigs
The nurse calls himself "Hawkeye", possibly a foreshadowing to Jeff being a "Hawkeye" character in just a few episodes.
Abed races Jeff for top bunk. Priceless.
Jeff eating ice cream. "Has this always been here?"
Jeff on the couch. Yikes.
Shirley wants "a piece of that".
Jeff still works out and brushes his teeth as a bum. Good to have priorities, I guess.
"Cool. Cool, cool, cool" makes it's first appearance- and it's said by Abed, and then later again by Jeff.
Pierce kinda rocks on the keyboard. Just sayin'.
That is so many condoms! Hopefully they aren't the same one's that Dean Pelton gives out to students in the STD episode.
Annie's a little exposed at the "end"...
Final Grade
84% Lots of jokes all episode, and most of them are performed perfectly. The ending is touching and sweet, when Abed and Jeff hug. Pierce finally sticks up for Britta, and is rewarded by having his very own song to brag about. Annie takes a small step in the right direction by taking her Nana's blanket back, and not letting herself be taken advantage of so much. All the character's had a good role, and this episode had such a good flow to it. My only complaint is that Dean Pelton was not in this episode at all.
