You arent hearing what happened. You're hearing the legend of what happened. Everyone is an unreliable narrator. So it gives the audience a window into what would've been 20 seasons to work through but it also lets the stories be ridiculous and as funny as they need to be to suit the moment. Excellent narrative device.

They aren't but they have to jive. I didn't feel it jiving. Felt more like jamming together non-fitting puzzle pieces.

I imagine ASP wanted to do that episode to build the legend of Susie and had it in mind for a while. But it was overegged pudding, IMO.

it's funny because that's basically the only episode of the entire run i didn't care for lol. Maybe i'll watch it down the line and feel differently.
