Plot from fox.com:
 
I swear on everything I am going to start calling myself DJ Peanut Butter.

Oy, the hipster set. I consider myself a neo-hippie type, but even I know what Hank and Enrique are feeling. :p
 
I don't know why I noticed this, but the guy Peggy couldn't find a house for at first with the striped jacket is voiced by the same guy who did the change beggar when Bobby wanted to be a bum.
 
This one didn't really do anything for me. Maybe I just don't have enough experience with hipsters like the ones in this episode to appreciate the observational humor about them, I dunno.
 
Join the club, we got jackets.

As for today episode, I laughed when Hank worried about Inez social life, seriously who here expected that? Be honest, I won't judge. Glad that I didn't read the description, or I would have been spoiled of such a good episode. Damn hipster, I find their lifestyle ironic for some reason, though I can't put my finger on it.

Other highlights were the ending where everyone pretended to live in the neighborhood, and Hank giving his speech.
 
So, they made fun of rich hipsters that move into neighborhoods, jack up the rent prices, and I missed it? I saw the very begginning and the very end. That's it.
 
Same here. Whenever she insists she knows Spanish, whenever she insists she's smart and a genius, whenever she brings up her substitute teacher of the year awards or whenever tries to order people around...gah she's just so horribly annoying... why the heck does Hank still stay with her?! She's nothing but trouble and totally cramping his style! He should just divorce her and date that former cheerleader cop that had a thing for him XD
 
Peggy has been more tolerable in recent seasons, down from her all-time high of "psycho" around season nine, and the "Flat Stanley" episode. What Peggy was on that week, I'll never know.

So yeah, this was a return to the more annoying Peggy of old, but since we haven't seen that version in a while, I didn't mind it too much.

What I can't get used to is her being a real estate agent. It doesn't seem to fit. She's more of a bad substitute teacher.
 
It went too fast for me to notice in time, but I'm pretty sure they were just faking it. By that point, everyone was in the plan to get the hipsters out of the neighborhood.
 
Sign me up for a jacket. except when she fights with Cotton, she's a downer. They tend to push her along the lines of I Love Lucy, I never liked that humour either. Hank into the whole "popular Girl" thing was the best part. Hipsters? Isn't the idea of "trendy hippies" a bit of an oxy-thingy?

I notice Luann with the carriage and thought "What's up with that?"
