No one likes an incomplete massage.
Both Larrys are capable of more than we could imagine.
But before we get ahead of ourselves, back to the massage table.
(And that her new beau, Ted Danson, is handsome and flexible.)
This is not a good look for Larry, whose water-bottle trial is coming up any day now.
After a brief debate on the meaning of the wordhunch a hunch is something thats shared.
Jeff tells Larry that Springsteen is coming to town for his Farewell tour and has asked to meet him.
And dont get him started on using tongs on a cookie platter.
It neednt be said, but Ill say it anyway: Larry is not a C-eater.
A guy called Jeff Donut.
He works with Ken Puffin.
(I wonder if Larry has seenBarbie?)
Larry lies, says hes read it, and then bemoans to Leon that he must actually read it.
Meanwhile, Larry finds a new lawyer, played by Sanaa Lathan, who also playedKendall Roys lawyerinSuccession.
That is until Springsteens manager shows up.
Larry is visibly disgusted at the suggestion that he had sex with a man.
Ultimately, Ken has the final word: Oh, weve met.
Im Ken, and we banged it out.
Ken has no problem spilling on Larrys sexual preferences particularly that hes a floor fucker.
Everyone is surprised, including Bruce.
After all, Larry is a germaphobe, as we all know.
Bruce leaves abruptly before dessert (no happy ending!).
Its no surprise that Susie, Professional Yenta, immediately takes this floor-fucker information to Cheryl.
When Cheryl confronts him about his fear of intimacy, we have to pity the woman a bit.
Larry: People talk like that?
Thats what happens when people have sex.)
This is yet another damning accusation ahead of Larrys trial that he simply cannot afford.
The sequence of Larry testing for COVID is hilarious, and his sick voice is quite convincing.
He goes down a list of people he interacted with as if its a hit list.
As we explored in the recap for The Gettysburg Address, Larry is a huge fan of anything Lincoln.
Could this be a hint were about to get an address of our own?
Breathe in, breathe out, yell at the top of your lungs.
you’re free to practically see the COVID particles flying in the air.
As the Boss himself said, you cant start a fire without a spark.
And the spark has been set.
The massage is over.
Its hard to believe were so close to the end, to the post-coital non-cuddle.
Will all of this, any of this, come back to haunt Larry in the end?
Leonisms
On hunches: A hunch is like a sneeze.
Gotta let that shit out.
On berries and cannibals eating Black people: Fucking berries are fucking delicious.
You know what they say: The darker the berry, the sweeter the juice.
The darker the berry, meaning the darker you are, the sweeter your juice is.
If a cannibal ate me, that motherfucker would be like, Mm!
Wow, this motherfuckers delicious.
That way it wont throw regular motherfuckers off.
Youre moving along, people see it, everybodyll start doing it.
And then theyll add you to the evolution-of-man chart.
Next thing you know, you go down in history.
On zippers: You gotta jiggle it.
On how Larry looks in a suit: Like a mortician.
Like you bout to bury a motherfucker.
On COVID: Harassing you?
You got me fucked up right now.
Im over in that bullshit-ass, little-ass house, and you got the good bathroom.
I cant take number twos over there.
