My vote is based on the clues that Reddit picked up on that make the most sense, lol I would have never gotten there on my own.

This episode was a well-done Hitchcock homage, and the actors really sold it. Sam Richardson playing ambiguously good or bad in the flashback was so funny.

I genuinely have no idea how the reddit users uncover and solve these clues. Like the codes and flowers and the “not the” things?? Amazing.

I remember that I was OBSESSED with Buffy when it aired. I was on several different Buffy forums, I lived for spoilers, etc. When they were filming the musical episode, a two second clip of Giles singing got leaked and I sent it to my sister (who is the one I used to watch the show with) and she basically said she liked the show but she didn't think about it outside of the one hour per week when she watched the episode. I was like WHAT?!!!!

But that's how I feel about Afterparty. I enjoy watching it, but I'm not scouring the screen for clues and codes. I enjoy the episode as I watch it and then I don't think about it at all until the next episode airs. If I notice things while I'm watching, great. If not, I'm not pausing the episode to take screenshots and analyze every little thing.

This last ep really made up for that awful ep about Detective Danner. Elizabeth Perkins doing a dramatic reading of MMMBop had me laughing so hard. She killed it!

This show is really fun. I'm liking it better than Only Murders

This season has been so good.
