Is Laurel hooking up with a brainless alien-bug man?
Who knew hearing loss could be so terrifying?
By the beginning of this episode, however, shes starting to think she might just be paranoid.

As Laurel tells Gustav and Rochelle, Its nothing.
He just had trouble hearing in one ear.
To which Gustav immediately replies, Oh my God, hes a bug man.
Im on your side, Gustav.
But they have bigger problems than whether or not Laurels dating a bug man.
Where did Gustav get brass knuckles?
As for Luke, hes facing problems of his own.
Then we will consider naming something after a woman.
Lukes not stupid, so he knows somethings up and that maybe Laurels not crazy.
Shes prepared to call 9-1-1 when Gustav bangs on the door and barges in.
Dont you want to know if hes a bug?
Gustav: Theyre drawn to the bacon.
Laurel: Youre making this up.
Gustav: Check Wikipedia.
Gustav and Laurel skedaddle, and its now unclear if Anthony is a bug man or just a scumbag.
Not sure which one is worse.
Probably the bug man.
You dont like children, Red tells Luke.
No one likes children.
She thinks theyre nuts, but shes still willing to investigate.
Together, they go on a bug hunt, looking for high-pitched frequencies that indicate infestation.
While they dont find any bugs, the bugs find Dr. Alaimo and shes soon infected.
So for now, it looks like Laurel, Rochelle, and Gustav are on their own.
But Brett is still in the hospital, and hes running out of time.
Lukes dad suggests he let Brett die because itll look good for his eventual presidential campaign.
And to add insult to injury, the kiosk is renamed the Reagan Hut.
However, the most horrifying part is still to come.
Anthony shows up at Laurels apartment with an apology pizza, apology flowers, and a DVD ofLove Actually.
(Everyone knows its a Christmas movie, Anthony.
What are you doing?)
Is Laurel going to join the legion of bug people?!?
Surely not, but then again, I thought Anthony couldnt possibly be infested.
Shows how much I know.
Odds and ends
Number of times we hear You Might Think:
0!
Bring back The Cars.
Best lines:
Luke to Laurel: Were snobs, face it.
The Healy children: No ones up to our standards.
Laurel: Hey, what are you doing?
Anthony: Not much, what about you?
Laurel: Oh, you know, just saving the world.
Red: I know the difference between an A and an E, but not everyone does.
Gustav: Maybe hes not a bug.
Maybe hes just a bastard.
