But tonight's attempt at normalcy isn't normal at all. As Alan Sepinwall notes "Even when 'Community' is normal, it's not normal, because it's not quite like the episodes that aired before or after it. The show takes very seriously the idea of college — even a terrible community college like Greendale, where Dean Pelton is surprised whenever anyone demonstrates they've learned something in class — as a place where you can change yourself into anything you want to be. And it keeps reinventing itself accordingly."
