It could be heartbreaking; instead, its hilarious.

More funerals could use an unintentional pick-me-up like this.

No, this isnt what he would have wanted, Tandy responds.

But this is what he deserved.

To Erica, thats disrespectful.

Hell, to anyone, that comes off as disrespectful.

As they say, a funeral is really for the living, anyway.

If anyone gets knocked down and gets back up again, its Tandy.

But he takes on the role of Chief Griever anyway, repeatedly calling Phil his brother.

While Tandys busy mourning, Melissas struggling hard after Todd rejected her marriage proposal in the midseason finale.

But hes nice too nice so he says yes anyway, and the two end up kissing.

Melissa gets her hopes up and later giddily tells Carol she thinks theyll get back together.

This doesnt quite convince her to dub Tandy her kids godfather.

Goodbye, brother, Tandy says.

Erica offers a disapproving Tandy and then once again when he follows with Goodbye, friend.

Tandy will always do what Tandy wants.

Thats a different story.
