Annette helps take care of Leo, but Mindy would rather have a nanny.
With Danny gone visiting his dad in California, Mindy has regressed back into her slob lifestyle.
And while shes been feeding them, she also has no respect for personal space or privacy.

Theres a montage of crazies (Candidate: I love the way babies smell.
Morgan: I just got an Amber Alert on my phone.)
before they meet Clara (Maya Kazan).

For a second, I thought she was going to be the founder of the Modern Mominista blog.
Of course shes too good to be true, but well see what her fatal flaw is later.
Back at Mindy and Dannys apartment, Annette is also being given some bad news.
Annette is uncharacteristically civil, meaning shes obviously offended/hurt/scheming.
Sure enough, the next day at work, Mindy gets served; Annettes suing her for slave labor.
They have it out at the attorneys office (Don Castellano, esquire) where nothing gets resolved.
Mindy rushes home to fire Clara, who is appalled to learn that Leo has already been vaccinated.
(AnyWhy Not Me?readers reminded by Mindy Kalings chapter about an anti-vaccination celeb?)
But Clara leaves before Mindys off of work, leaving her in a rut.
Unfortunately, theyre caught by Jody, who walks in to talk to Mindy about his own problems.
At least Jeremy manages one punch before they hug it out.
She realizes that she needs Annettes help, both in her life and in Leos.
We get another wonderful Mindy/Annette moment when Mindy goes over to apologize and seals it with an unwanted hug.
Will this help with the ongoing stay-at-home vs. working mom issue between Mindy and Danny?
I wouldnt mind some more Mindy/Annette interactions.
Best lines:
Oh, shes great.
Loves the baby, costs next to nothing, shes ethnic…Its yoouu!
Mindy, about Annette
You want to pay me to break up with him?
What are you, the dad in a Nicholas Sparks movie?
Whitney to Jody
Maybe I should find a woman I deserve.
Quiet, a plain, simple girl.
Maybe someone whos gone mute since she witnessed a crime.
