First and foremost with all the possible situations, moments, and dramatic options of any of the previous episodes gave us and could have been reused or gave us more to pursue, THIS episode is the lowest and most stupid episode ever. Of all the shtick that could have been done the lowest joke in all comedy barrels is a poop joke.
This episode not only mainly surrounds a poop joke but it takes it far over the edge. There was nothing funny about the joke, the situation, the attempt to handle it by needing a plumber, the plumbers lines (they all sucked so hard), the attempt to cover it up and more specifically the attempt to use the fire extinguisher was simply dumb. Grace isn't supposed to be the dumbest of them all let alone isn't supposed to be absolutely incompetent: it is not complicated to use a fire extinguisher and it sure as hell doesn't shoot out so much material that one is flung around as if using a fire hose with water at full blast.
I went and rewatched this entire show from pilot to renewal seasons. I've enjoyed the characters and the shtick. But this one sucked so badly I had to write this review. If you never saw it or it's been a few years just skip this one if you aim to watch this show again.
