Christmas Episode | |
| dads / int_6ef9d3fe | comment |
Christmas Episode: "The Glitch That Stole Christmas." Eli and Warner's company has developed a Christmas game, but an employee secretly and repeatedly inserted the N-word as payback for being fired. Worse, the watchdog executive they gave a preview copy to is black, so Eli and Warner scheme to break into the guy's house and retrieve the game. Meanwhile, David works as a Mall Santa. | |

Like Goes with Like: Referenced in one episode, when Veronica has a date. When Eli asks if he's Asian, she says no and he (jokingly) calls her a racist. | |
