Wow! Now I know I have been giving Ava a hard time lately in my reviews, but I never thought the show would go there!
So, Ava let it slip that Abbott has been taking bribes to arch nemesis (that was not too smart was it Ava) and now the district wants to conduct an audit at Abbott Elementary. The “I’ll hide the white kid” line from Mr. Johnson will live rent free in my head for a while. While all the teachers scramble to get rid of the bribes from the golf course, our favorite librarian lets it be known, “This isn’t my first raid.” I truly love these characters. Side note: Cree Summer is a national treasure. She deserves more credit than she is given. Any chance I get to praise her I will take it. She is definitely the Queen of Voiceovers and shout out to Quinta for adding her to the cast.
Just when it seems like the crew is going to get away with the bribes, the owners of the golf course mess everything up. The last person I’d expect to fall of their sword for this school – Ava! She is suspended and has to leave. Barbara points out everything I have been saying about Ava. She has slowly been showing that she cares about the school, students and staff. Although I still feel like she goes a little too hard on Jeanine. At some point it stops being funny and is just mean, bullying behavior. Also, Ava and Jeanine in matching outfits was hysterical.
Now that Ava is gone (I am sure not for too long) I want her back. It is the old be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. When she comes back perhaps, she will have a new perspective on the school. While we love characters for their quirks, a part of being a great character is growth. I want to see Ava grow.
I am sure some fans will be upset by tonight’s episode but sometimes you have to shake things up (I am looking at you 911) and I am here for a little chaos before we put everything back together. I’ll take online bets on how long this will last. Two to three episodes or will this storyline be carried into next season?
So, fans, I leave it to you. What did you think? Drop a comment and remember to vote in our poll below.
