Twisting story lines save a somewhat uneventful episode

"That's where I know you from! The White Party! You gave me crabs!" ~Michael

The best thing about episode 9, without a shadow of a doubt, was the introduction of Emmett's obsession with cyber-sex. His Internet counterpart that accompanies him for the majority of the episode keeps things interesting. Brian also struggles with the decision to give up his full parental rights of Gus, and Michael gets extremely stressed about being on his best behavior at a fancy dinner that David invited him to. Justin tries to give Brian some advice about how everyone needs a father, all the while Brian is practically hiding the existence of his father. Overall, the episode was pretty good but a step down from the greatness of some of the other episodes. Not too much happened, but the Brian/Michael scenes and the Brian/Justin scenes alone made this a better episode.

Not a very good episode. What bothered me the most was the story of Brian giving parenting rights to Melanie. Was so stupid that he didn't. Does being a sperm donor make one a real parent unlike someone who actually raises the kid? It's not like he would never see Gus, he would just give Melanie the rights she deserves. Of course this was also because of Justin's influence, one should not listen to stupid children

Emmett's story was pretty silly, but I did like the ending when he speaks to Ted at the club, I was laughing a lot. They both were just too great.

And Michael meeting David's friends was pretty amusing as well, but it was not as good as it could be.
