Well, I have to say I was unimpressed with the first episode and don't see how it would help to attract new viewers. The main plot was confusing, and I don't think the recap would have been entincing or easy to follow as a new viewer either. As a fan, it was simply annoying.

Now tagless for your comfort.
After three hours of needing to pee, I said screw it and discreetly opened the passenger door and copped a squat, during a lull in traffic. A cop pulled up 2 seconds after I was back in my seat.
That could have been awkward.

Our wings are not tired.
Heh, I bet the cop has peed on the side of the road.

True!
He just wanted to make sure I had someone comin for me. I guess I do. Tow driver called me to clarify my location.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
copped a squat
Oh, this is a good one. Over the summer, I was at a picnic, and my friend asked if I think "pop a squat" means to pee outside, or just sit down. I was like, well first of all, it's "cop a squat," but then I'm not sure -- I think I could go either way with context.
What say you all? Cop v. pop, sit v. pee.

That which does not kill you should RUN
What say you all? Cop v. pop, sit v. pee.
What I've heard most often is "plop a squat," and always to mean "hey, grab a seat, sit down, etc."

I think it might vary by region.
I used it in this case because of the actual cop. I mostly use it as "sit". Unless I'm in a bathroom or peeing in front of police.

Cop a squat = pee outside.
Karate is complete. Now we head home.
