I don't think you have to whitefont, Cindy.

It's not a real vase, after all. Remember the Trolley Problem? He can do some stuff in the neighborhood.

I think Janet being the most advanced Janet ever after her umpteen gazillion reboots just has some downsides. I can't see Bad Janet having the self control to masquerade as our Janet for so long. She does seem to be heading for some kind of breakdown or explosion, though.

Jason's "Not again" made me laugh and laugh. It was so like the Hitchhiker's Guide petunias!

Thrive to spite them

I was surprised Jason didn't accidentally let on to Chidi what was going on.

Tahani always surprises me with how much she has changed.

Hey. New board.

Okay I need a plot problem explained. If it's impossible to get enough points to be in the good place on Earth now, and so all of our best people are all headed to the bad place, how come Mindy St. Clair? Does this mean that she is the "best" person of the last 500 years?

Yeah, in the sense of being the person with the most net points. That bothered me some but I have decided it further demonstrates the inherent wrongness of the point system. I figure earning all her points pretty much right as she died is what almost let her slip through.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Didn't her points equalize out to zero, thus requiring the Judge to make a ruling and bypassing whatever quota is normally used? Whereas the head Accountant made it sound as if Doug Forcett's half-million or so points wouldn't be enough to get a man of his age into the Good Place with the system being applied in standard fashion.

With Mindy whatever good thing she did balanced out the negative points she had and then she died right after so she didn't earn or lose any points.

Since she had the weird zero balance when she died they made the medium place for her.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I'm not sure what's going on with Janet, but it sure seems like Eleanor is backsliding, no?

Not a girl. Oh Jason, my heart.

Right? I'm all a flutter

And Jason was having a really good episode even before that. I am pleased.
