Hey everyone, here we go with week 9 of the rewatch. You know the drill by now ;)

Writer(s): Michael Schur (creator), Jen Statsky
Director: Dean Holland
Originally aired: 3rd November 2016

Synopsis: Michael's skills are put to the test when he attempts to sort out an unprecedented situation. Meanwhile, Chidi makes a connection elsewhere, much to the dismay of Eleanor, while Janet shows a different side of herself.

Memorable Quote:
Eleanor Shellstrop: Ugh, I hate jazz. Every jazz song is like 40 minutes long. It's like, we get it. You can blow on a trumpet. Wrap it up, Elton John...

I love your point about her pushing people away -- yet also eventually forming ties, of a sort anyway, with some pretty unpleasant people. Maybe that satisfies some balance in her head of not being totally alone, but not ever getting her hopes up too high, either?

(Now that you've gotten me thinking it, I definitely showed some Eleanor-like behavior in school, too, despite being more Chidi-like in general. I just had so little idea of how to interact with the other kids that it felt safer to refuse to even try, you know?)
