    The source of that one Reddit quip, and all around great episode

    My overall rating of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"'s Season 6: 6/10

    Responsible for giving us that "because of the implication" reference you might find commonly quoted on Reddit, this one episode is a certain highlight of this pretty decent season. Most jokes and scenes were legitimately funny, and the whole thing had kind of Top-Gear-esque excitement to it, the familiar backdrop of the pub nowhere to be seen. I legitimately could do with two or three more episodes dealing with boat-improvement and the gang's life as sea enthusiasts, but good things must come to an end, I suppose, and this series has been too prone to overdoing stuff and too caught up in the status-quo to do something like that.

    Either way, one of the show's best episodes beyond any doubt.

    • Quotes

      Mac: What do we need a mattress for?

      Dennis Reynolds: What do you mean what do we need a mattress for? Why in the hell do you think we just spent all that money on a boat? The whole purpose of buying the boat in the first place was to get the ladies nice and tipsy topside so we can take 'em to a nice comfortable place below deck and, you know, they can't refuse, because of the implication.

      Mac: Oh, uh... okay. You had me going there for the first part, the second half kinda threw me.

      Dennis Reynolds: Well dude, dude, think about it: she's out in the middle of nowhere with some dude she barely knows. You know, she looks around and what does she see? Nothin' but open ocean. "Ahh, there's nowhere for me to run. What am I gonna do, say 'no'?"

      Mac: Okay. That... that seems really dark.

      Dennis Reynolds: Nah, no it's not dark. You're misunderstanding me, bro.

      Mac: I'm-I think I am.

      Dennis Reynolds: Yeah, you are, because if the girl said "no" then the answer obviously is "no"...

      Mac: No, right.

      Dennis Reynolds: But the thing is she's not gonna say "no", she would never say "no" because of the implication.

      Mac: ...Now you've said that word "implication" a couple of times. Wha-what implication?

      Dennis Reynolds: The implication that things might go wrong for her if she refuses to sleep with me. Now, not that things are gonna go wrong for her but she's thinkin' that they will.

      Mac: But it sounds like she doesn't wanna have sex with you...

      Dennis Reynolds: Why aren't you understanding this? She-she doesn't know if she wants to have sex with me. That's not the issue...

      Mac: Are you gonna hurt women?

      Dennis Reynolds: I'm not gonna hurt these women! Why would I ever hurt these women? I feel like you're not getting this at all!

      Mac: I'm not getting it.

      Dennis Reynolds: Goddamn.

      [notices woman staring at them]

      Dennis Reynolds: Well don't you look at me like that, you certainly wouldn't be in any danger.

      Mac: So they are in danger!

      Dennis Reynolds: No one's in any danger!
