I'd say a B- or a C+ is my rating. This episode seemed to be very "Foster's" like, the plot is pretty much getting back to the basic stuff we all see and heard about before. This wasn't a really original or extravagant plot idea and things just seemed to be pretty average, but this wasn't totally predictably boring.
Despite the obvious moral lesson thing, it was worth it to see Eduardo go through some of Bloo's antics and take credit for them, ESPECIALLY the Deo ad. Ironic that Bloo's jack ass moments make for excellent nursery school stories. I liked the fact we got a focus on the friends this time and not just Mac and Bloo.
Jackie Khones has certainly become the new top side character dog, he's been appearing constantly and even his bizarre love for sandwiches is becoming an iconic trademark of his. I'm actually surprised Bloo would want to do paint ball, they hurt like freaking HELL! I'm amazed those kiddie IFs didn't burst with tears.
Paint ball is not like playing dodge ball, that is a much higher risk game to play. And I know it's not really important but I totally agree with Cass about Frankie. I practically was going "Awwwww" when I saw Frankie comfort Ed like that. It was so cute and sweet, it's been so long since we've seen her be comforting.
Truth be told, Scrappy started to piss me off after a while. He looked like an old paperboy from a Dick Tracy movie or something and even if that was his gimmick, it got old real fast after hearing him butcher the English language with every other word he said in that annoying fake sounding NY language.
Not sure if that's "NY language" actually or what you call it but you know what I mean. He just wasn't that interesting or enjoyable to watch, I'd rather like to see more of those cute IF babies talk and do some more but that's just me. So yeah, tiny above average episode, not bad but not really special either.
