Community Season 4 Episode 10 Recap


Community 
Season 4 Episode 10 Recap
"Intro To Knots"

It’s Christmas and Jeff’s having a party! Wait, what? I feel like this was shown out of order and that this should have been aired after the Thanksgiving ep with Jeff reuniting with his father and Shirley having a disastrous Thanksgiving of her own.

All continuity aside, Annie blows in Jeff's crib and starts adding her own touches. The rest of the Greendale 6 (no Pierce, sad face) arrive and Annie informs them that they have failed their history paper. Jeff is upset as he is attempting to graduate early.



But have no fear; Annie has invited Cornwallis to the par-tay! The plan is to talk him into a higher grade. Jeff botches the plan and Cornwallis ends up tied to a chair as they force him to up their grade. Cornwallis takes it upon himself to manipulate the group into betraying one another as the person who will untie him gets an A while the rest fail. In the end, Jeff, with his wise words, says they will not betray one another.  Cornwallis was never tied and confessed to being lonely this holiday and that’s the reason he attended the soiree. Also it is revealed that Shirley is in the running for valedictorian. I did not see that coming. 

High points: Abed in the Die Hard shirt and Chang asking “Is this a card?” Those were the only laugh out loud parts for me but that’s two more than last week.

Predictions: This isn't really a prediction just a hope. And it’s that Chang will be the new 7th person in the Greendale 7. We just have to get past his hatred of the group. Also I think he’s working with the Dean of City College.

While this wasn't a stellar episode it was certainly a step up from last week’s ep. There were glimmers of the old Community here and there and I still have high hopes the show can become as great as it once was.  It’s just painfully obvious that they are still working out the glitches of having new writers and dealing with Chevy Chase’s departure.

I say that we soldier on through this season! Until next time Greendale Humans!
