Francine, feeling like Stan doesn't spend much time with him anymore, decides to masquerade herself as a dude with the help of Roger. Under her alias, "Frank", she becomes BFFs with Stan, but some people, not naming names *cough* Bullock *cough* are less than convinced. Meanwhile, Steve and his friends join a boys' band and try to make it big with the help of Snot's uncle.
I wasn't crazy about this episode. Be it it's slow pace, only few funny jokes or it's kinda annoying secondary story. I am a big fan of Steve, I'll give you that, but I felt that the Steve/Snot/Barry/Toshi storyline (and how very many there are this year) didn't match up to the A-storyline, but even that one was well told either.
It is a concept with a lot of promise, but it fell flat due to Judah Miller's script. This is the first time he's writing without his brother Murray, and it looks like he's not doing so hot writing solo. Luckily, "Minstrel Krampus" will be written by the two boys so that'll be exciting to watch for.
I definitely did like Jon Hamm's cameo he makes at the end of the episode, probably one of the few shining stars in this bleak whore of an episode.
4/10
