Episode Report Card Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT It's Not Always About You

Down at the cop shop, Roxanne asks Kevin if he and Lucy are having sex. What a lovely question! And so appropriate in the workplace. The T-1000 seems uncomfortable as he pretends that he's just too classy to answer a question like that. But he's looking a little too worried, which makes me wonder -- do cyborgs have sex? Do they even have dicks? Roxanne is stupid enough to think that just because RevBong and Lucy are both ministers (or, in Lucy's case, a minister wannabe), they will have the exact same attitude toward sex. Come to think of it, on this show, don't all decent people have the same exact attitude toward sex? Evil, evil, evil -- unless you're married, of course. The fact that Roxanne isn't sure she can be in a relationship without getting some should make me like her more, but she's been working my nerves for so long that it's too little, too late. Kevin advises her to find out about Chandler's feelings on the subject by asking Chandler. He's just a fountain of wisdom, isn't he?
Annie is spending some quality time with the twins by helping them build a really ugly Lego truck. Fortunately, one of the twins calls the hideous truck "not so great" and puts it out of its misery. RevCam comes in and tells Annie that he's heading off to his appointment with Dr. Gibson. She acts all passive-aggressive as she again tries to get him to divulge what goes on in his therapy sessions. What a fuckwit. The atmosphere is pretty tense by the time Ruthie walks in. RevCam uses her entrance as an excuse to flee. When Ruthie asks, "Why do I get the feeling I missed all the good stuff?" I have to roll my eyes. Trust me, Ruthie -- you didn't miss shit.
At the courthouse, Ms. Beane tells Lucy that her request to be excused for jury duty has been denied. Lucy, of course, has to throw her a whole bunch of attitude as she whines self-importantly about how the world will stand still if she has to miss some classes at super-prestigious Crawford Clown College. Ms. Beane very reasonably suggests that Lucy postpone her jury duty until summer. Lucy says she'll still be attending school in the summer. Oh, and she'll be working too. That's bloody likely. Have we seen Lucy work, like, ever? Lucy's extreme assholishness makes it really hard to have any sympathy for her, especially when she refuses to serve during Christmas week. Why? I'm not sure, exactly, but it sounds like it would be sort of inconvenient for her. Boo-fucking-hoo. I seriously doubt the courtroom is open on Christmas Day. At least Ms. Beane has the good sense not to take any of this very seriously. Looks like it's jury duty for Lucy.
RevCam is in the middle of his counseling session with Dr. Gibson. No exciting revelations here. In fact, this may just be the most boring discussion in the history of mankind. In a classic avoidance move, RevCam turns the tables and starts asking about Dr. Gibson's divorce. I'm sure I'm not the only viewer who cares deeply and passionately about Dr. Gibson and his divorce. After his five minutes of screen time last week, I've just got so much invested in him as a character.
