Love Is Saying It On A Toilet

2 Broke Girls, S02E11


Caroline and Max worried that they weren't going to be able to start making profits because their sales were so low.  Since Sophie had invested in their business, Max offered Sophie to be a silent partner after her dream of owing a lake house in Poland had been ruined by shady contractors.  However, Sophie's changes in their business were unwelcome, and Max was unable to tell her to stop interfering so much.  Max also gave Andy advice about how to tell Caroline he loved her.

Two things that I liked were Max and Caroline insulting people who passed by their shop and Andy's journey to confess his love to Caroline.  The first thing was especially funny when an old woman asked about the price of their cupcakes and said no to the price before leaving right away.  I loved how both Caroline and Max called the lady a whore.  They were so mean, but I can understand their desperation to get customers flowing in.  After all, they have to sell 70 cupcakes a day to stay afloat. 

I thought it was cute that Andy wanted to tell Caroline he loved her, after they haven't been dating that long.  He must really love Caroline (or respect Max's opinion) to not just do things his own way and instead do research via romantic comedies before he told Caroline.  I didn't think that telling her in the diner was a bad idea until Earl had said:
Why, was the dump closed?
When he put it that way, it did make it seem like a pretty gross place to declare your love for someone.  I mean, this is the place that Oleg stands around talking about nasty things that I wish he would only keep in his dirty mind.

Speaking of Earl, I loved how excited Andy was that Earl gave him a personalized greeting when he came to the diner.  Being called "Prince Charming" wasn't that special to me, but it was cute how Andy felt like he had been accepted because of that, even though Max cautioned him that Earl sometimes calls groups of people by the same name, regardless of who it is.

In the end, Andy ended up telling Caroline he loved her on a toilet with his pants down and a tablet in hand while Caroline was in a cupcake costume and stuck in the door.  If anything else, that was definitely a memorable moment that neither of them will ever forget.  I liked that it ended up being like that because it meant that all of Andy's planning and research were for nothing.  It's not the place that matters, but the feeling behind the words.  Haha.

As for Sophie, well, I knew that making her silent about anything wasn't about to happen.  I still didn't expect hoagies and big chandeliers, though.  She outdid herself.  I'm just hoping that by the next episode she'll decide to step back since she felt like she was doing all the work and Caroline and Max weren't doing anything.  I'm just glad Max didn't get a chance to tell Sophie to tone it down because I think that would have exploded into a lot more drama than they needed.

This was a good bonus episode for the week.  It gives you a pretty good sense that the girls won't have people crowding their doors any time soon unless they get some big advertisement.  Sophie may or may not be the one to help them with that, as long as she stops trying to make their upscale shop into a place with pickled eggs on the counter.  Andy looks like he is going to be around for the long run (or at least the season?), the way things are moving.  Hopefully he or Caroline won't do anything to screw things up in the future.
