“Raising Hope” – February 8, Tuesday, 9 – 9:30pm, on FOX
“Raising Hope” is finally back again with new episodes and crazy as ever! This week the episode is entitled “Romeo and Romeo” and is about Jimmy finding a friend with a child like his. Jimmy has missed not having friends with little kids, probably because those people are in high school where Jimmy should be. But in his grocery store where he works, Sabrina points out a kid who has a little boy the same age as Jimmy’s, and they meet and exchange phone numbers. Somehow they manage a play date over the phone although Jimmy has trouble with the phone – it’s a rotary phone so he can’t punch 1 when he’s supposed to. And Maw Maw cuts in on the other phone and keeps talking, so it’s quite difficult. But they get it done and Jimmy and baby Hope go over to the new friend’s house.
They are African American with a beautiful home and really, really expensive wine! Jimmy and his friend are playing with the kids and Jimmy says it’s nice you let your folks live with you, and the mother says no, that they let him live with them! So Virginia, Jimmy’s mom, comes to the door with her cleaning group to clean the house. They are all very surprised, to say the least, but the mother asks them all to sit down and not do the cleaning that day. So they drink all the wine and go home. Jimmy has asked them all over for dinner, and no one wants to do it, but it’s all arranged so they have to. Virginia has saved all the wine bottles from their new friend’s home, so she empties her old bottles and pours the cheap wine into them.
They discover at dinner that they have a lot in common. Both couples had babies in high school: Virginia and Burt’s baby was a prom baby and the other couple’s was a homecoming baby. Burt said he probably should have spent more time in biology class. He did put a condom on a banana in class but it made the banana taste bad and obviously did him no good. They put MawMaw in the bedroom looking for salt water taffy they had stuck under the mattress. That kept her busy the entire time. Since they had so much in common, they made a date for a barbecue the next week. About that time, Jimmy and his new friend came flying into the house, fighting each other and falling all over the place. They were fighting over a girl naturally. The company finally left and the woman complimented Virginia on her choice of wine – she said it must have cost $2000! Apparently that’s what she pays for that wine.
So the parents felt good. Burt had a new friend and Virginia had someone who liked her fake wine. Jimmy had a new friend – he’d make up with him before the barbecue, I’m sure.
This was a funny episode . . . but they all are. So watch it!
