Here we go again with Maya's obsession with Corey's younger brother, Josh. I hate these episodes, since Maya has been such a strong character, and she has some deep issues and insecurities. Then when Josh comes around she is reduced to nothing. She becomes very insecure. She coercive Riley into going into a party with her. A college party, with college girls, who are going to pull Josh away from them.
Zay: Once again Zay's need to be the center of attention rises. He has used this in various ways, he is a gossip. This time he decided to help Corey teach the lesson, and steal Farkle's spotlight.
Guilty conscience: Before going to the party Riley's conscience appears in the form of a tater tot. The tater tot appears, and Maya forces her to eat it. After the greatest party of her life, her conscience appears, it reminds her that she can never tell her parents what happened that night. Then it reminds her that her parents trusted her, and her brother lied for her. The funniest moment: "Everything bad in the world is your fault". This was a humorous stab at the fact that guilt escalates. When you let it grow it feels like everything bad is your fault. I couldn't help but laugh at this.
Bad Girl: Maya and Riley go to the high school party, and Riley has the time of her life. Every time she says something a group picks her up and carries her away. She pledges, and joins a sorority, and based on the events of "Girl Meets Mr. Squirrel" it is strange to see her new handshake. She incorporates the ending includes the signature move of Riley and Maya. Maya is offended by this, and Riley tells her to grow up. It's of course a humor move, but a little too soon Disney.....too soon. Riley seems to have learned a lot from the sorority she joined.
Little Brother: Auggie steps up this episode to keep it from being a cliche, he decided to stand up for her and protect her, even though she snuck out. This ultimately causes him to get in trouble too, which is a little unfair, but a great parenting move by Topanga and Corey.
College Kids: Luckily, Josh made really good choices in friends, and a potential girlfriend. She was completely different from the sorority girls. They sit down and talk with Maya about her crush. They admire her, and her noble attempts to win Josh over. The girls take Maya's side: "It's not the big jesters that you do for other people, but the small jesters that you do for yourself". Maya seems to be more concerned with Riley, and always caring about her. Maya wants to be apart of her family, since her family isn't really around( "Pilot"). They explain that in college age isn't that much of a differnece. If Maya is willing to wait until she is in college, he may be smart enough to realize what a great girl Maya is.
MIA: There was absolutely no Lucas in this episode, this could have been a coincidence, and the interesting thing about this is. It is an episode where Maya is in love with Josh. Hmm, could Josh be a stand-in for Maya's feelings for Lucas?
Next Episode "Girl Meets Rules"
