That was some costume, when Raja put it on, it changed his entire personality. But when Justin wore it, it only made him sick. Any thoughts on the episode?

I actually thought it was pretty good. It's something a lot of people can relate to. The costume gave Raja the anonimity he needed to let out his repressed aggression. For Justin, just the thought of putting on a public performance was what made him sick.

This was my least favorite episode, so far. I really didn't like the whole story about the fish. I did like the story about the father pretending to work at the store, and nobody realizing that he didn't work there. The children's room at the library used to have the books out of order, and I'd go in and try to straighten them out since nobody who worked there seemed to be doing it. I always tried to act like I actually belonged to doing it, and nobody ever seemed to notice that I didn't, so I really believe that could happen.

^ That is kind of funny, to work somewhere and not really be employed by them.

Raja: "Just remember who you are Jusitn Tolchock. For there is evil in that fish."

The cheerleading outfits in the beginning and Justin singing and dancing in the mirror were the most HILARIOUS parts of the episode. And although it was nasty, I cracked up when Justin threw up in Raja's back pack...twice!

I understand feeling useless at home, but "working" somewhere that's not your job is beyond strange.

^ It was odd, but it was sort of funny too. I wouldn't want to do it, though. lol!

I wouldn't want to be in that horrible fish costume. Did you see when he fell over "again?"

He was in his element and he was going to make the most of it. I think it makes more sense than all the people who do jobs that they don't really care about, because it's there real job.
