Big Head: "I bet you wish you could wipe the Internet, like Gavin Belson...[Richard looks up in shock]...Whoah, this is weird. Every one of my signatures looks different from each other--"
Richard: "Wait, what???"
Big Head: "Yeah, this one is cursive, this one isn't, and this one just says 'Big Head'..."

it wasn't terrible, just not their best effort.
the reporter/PR scene was predictable and the scene with Laurie and Monica while informative was just tedious.
they set the bar high, it's not a complaint, just usually have more laugh out loud moments.
the dialog you quoted here was the best and when Bighead adds "this will never hold up..."
but this weeks episode was cringeworthy with their constant fails. I feel like the show can still be great if they focus on some wins also. The ending made up for it somewhat, but it's hurting the show IMO.
the hard drive bit in particular I found annoying. Gillfoyle doesn't just swap it out? Or at least confirm that he's got the the right one? Made no sense. If there was stuff on there of value to the company...why wouldn't they need it back rather than just destroyed?
Very much in line with the rest of the comments...I have LOVED this show...but I thought that episode was a dud and I think they need to come up with something to refresh because they can't just keep doing massive blunder followed by lucking their way into an epic game changing save.
I think getting rid of the CEO was a mistake. There was constant friction between the main characters and him. Now they are back to the we are geniuses at building stuff but can't run a company to save our lives mantra.
I do have to say I loved the Guilfoyle walks in as Geek Squad was awesome. I would have liked to see him take the drive and then harass Dinesh.
My buddy had a tiny part in tonight's episode as the Geek Squad guy. He's been working in different shows for a few years now, but none of our friends had any idea he'd be in the show tonight. Pretty cool
When they were talking about how they burned through all that money in front of BigHead, I thought for sure he was going to try to invest right there. If it was any other investor in the world they probably would.
Any episode with heavy doses of Monica is a winner. SFH.
I also enjoy the Laurie character. Chronically socially inept, but I love the unfiltered and uptight honesty.
I am a huge Bachman fan, but the storyline of him trying to swindle Big Head was too predictable. Bachman's character needs to evolve. Lots to work with, however. His character is damn entertaining.
Richard's stream of consciousness tirade with CJ Cantwell was hysterical. I love the fact something positive happened to Richard towards the end.
Overall, I love this show. It is right up there with my all-time favorites. I only wish the episodes were longer.
I think I take back my comments about Bachman and Big Head. Big Head will get sued and Bachman's master plan will not only be foiled, but he will somehow get wrapped up in the lawsuit and be worse off than before.
I do agree with the comment that they should have kept Action Jack around longer.

Yeah, definitely.
Always nice to see the working actors of the world get their few seconds on screen.
I'm still trying to predict the overall series arc
Is it to have Hendricks become a 9 figure guy through an IPO?
Or is it the never ending struggle?
Curious how many more seasons they could do. I'm predicting two more after this is done.
I feel like the struggle is weaved into the show, so they can't really ever truly succeed. Chris Hardwick mentioned that Tom Middleditch actually said this to him as well on the Nerdist podcast.
That was definitely a weak episode, arguably the worst of the series as another poster said. But it wasn't even really bad per se...I just hope they're setting something big up.
However, I think we can all see the NDA being violated, Bighead being sued, Erlich's assholeness towards Bighead backfiring on him, and then the Bighead winning the case due to how he signed the contract.I hope it isn't that obvious.
their, idiot.
The first four episodes of the season were fire, there had to be a downer at some point. Not the funniest one but still entertaining.
that's my guess, and it somehow winds up in Hooli's hands.
Richard: "Wait, what???"
Big Head: "Yeah, this one is cursive, this one isn't, and this one just says 'Big Head'..."

They're doomed.
IMO they are getting a little lazy and just gong to the well far to frequently with the same shtick.
They're doomed.
My thoughts exactly.
Can't say I disagree. I mean how many times can the same people shit the bed before they wind up out of business???
How about when he's signing the contract:
"I signed it three different ways. This one I just signed BigHead. That won't get certified."

See above. That was one of the funniest parts of the episode.

Not me, I think he gets sued by Hooli b/c he violated the terms of his settlement with them.
but he gets out of it the lawsuit because he signed it as big head or something stupid like that.
I am in this camp. If the show goes long enough, BH will definitely land n the three comma club. (And Richard will never succeed.)

The scene at the end where Richard takes 8 stairs at a time to prove a point was hysterical.
