Trivia
In the opening, Annie and Britta argue about weather Troy and Abed's apartment is 303 or 304. This is a reference to the fact that this episode and episode 304 Competitive Ecology were aired out of order. See more »Goofs
Near the end as the group begins singing, Pierce is seen throwing away his present to Troy, then after Jeff enters again we see him somehow throw it away again. See more »Soundtracks

It makes sense that an episode of Community where many of the laugh out loud moments are set up in one timeline and only reach their true payoff in another timeline is the episode which pops up throughout the rest of the season as a reference point for the study group.
This episode was about a lot of things. It certainly pushed the limits of what a twenty-two minute television show on NBC can do. It did something deeper with an exploration of the group dynamic within the study group. This episode delves into what place each character has in the group and where their strengths lie for the group as a whole. It does so in a supremely clever way, by subtlety removing a person from the group in seven separate timelines and allowing us to see how the group reacts without that person. The only difference from timeline to timeline is that a different person is removed in each timeline. There's your episode.
Brilliant writing. Fantastic concept. A solid 10 and a must-see episode of Community.
