Trivia

It appears that Catalina is cursing out Joy in Spanish. Actually, what she says is "I want to thank all the Spanish speaking Latinos who faithfully tune in to watch the show every week. And to those of you who aren't Latino, I want to congratulate you for learning a second language."

The Birds

Joy and Darnell are tired of their "little monsters", Dodge and Earl Jr., so they decide to put them in a camp for discipline. But they still have the last name Hickey and that last name is not well appreciate in the discipline camp so is the perfect time for Earl to fix the barn that he burned at that camp. In that camp Randy must face his phobia to birds and at the same the truth about that burned barn because he was the real guilty so Earl feels like it was Randy's fault that he became in a bad person so suddenly the karma list is now Randy's list.

This is a very good episode but maybe too sentimental because of the lesson that the "little monsters" teach to Earl that makes him forgive his brother; "You two are a couple of fruits", said Joy, "I think it's sweet", said Darnell. And yes, I think they look like a little of the two. Anyway, the flashbacks and the gags with Randy's phobia to birds are just great, feeling threatened of the ostrich even inside his own room. And also the little detail of Catalina's speech, dedicated to the Latino audience is really cool and funny because it looks like she is insulting Joy.
