Quotes
Customer: [reading Reggie's note out loud] When I woke up this morning I realized that going to bed with you was the best thing I've ever done.
Dr. John Becker: This is kind of embarrassing... Go on.
Customer: [reading] It made me see just how desperate I really was. I mean, sleeping with you? My God, how much worse could my life get?
[looks up at Becker]
Customer: I'm guessing she didn't know there'd be all these people around when I read this.
Dr. John Becker: Just... just go on...
Customer: [reading] I knew if I didn't leave today, I'd be here forever. I miss everyone, but I need to do this. Tell them all goodbye.
[takes his glasses off and sets the note down on the table]
Dr. John Becker: So she's gone?
Customer: Yes.
Dr. John Becker: That's... that's all she said?
Customer: Yes.
Dr. John Becker: So that's it?
Customer: Well... this is a little awkward, but...
[looks around, then leans down and kisses Becker on the cheek]
Dr. John Becker: Oh, uh... Reggie told you to do that, did she?
Customer: No. I just felt it.

8/10

Possibly the funniest episode of a sitcom series I've ever seen!

I have loved this series from its debut . . . the one single word I keep coming to that describes it is: "Smart!"

It does help if you have followed Becker's arc from the beginning . . . but this fifth season opener is what can best be described as "piss your pants funny." It is a monument to the genre!

I'll say no more but I can't remember when I have laughed louder, harder, and more often in 22 minutes.

A standing ovation to the entire cast, the writers, the direction . . . everything about this is right on target!

Bravo!
