That was a thousand dollars' worth of desk calculators!

…how likely is it that anyone would still make comparisons to a brother that much older?

Probably not THAT likely, but you never know. When I was in high school, I had a fearsome bio teacher who had been there long enough to have taught the parents of several kids in my class. She would frequently remark on this (i.e. "when I had your father in this class, he sat in THAT DESK, and he was a MUCH BETTER STUDENT"). Granted, she could totally have been making up the "that desk" part, but she wasn't making up the "had your father in class" part.

Comparisons to older siblings happened with a few of the older teachers, too, though I take your point that Kyle is so much older than Jeffrey as to be practically a different generation — but I think it falls into the "comparison to your parents" category above.

@Georgia: Nobody reads Albert his rights, either. Maybe someone in the phantom crowd yelled them out and I just didn't hear, but for a guy who's made the butt of procedure jokes, Hanson doesn't seem to observe it, like, ever.

@RJ: Glad I (and Casio) could help!

After a truly horrible, horrible weekend – you had me at "A synthesizer plinks disapprovingly."

This was my first smile in 3 days, and believe me, I appreciate it!

If I'm remembering correctly (having watched this again a few weeks ago), Hanson also arrests Albert without charging him. And seemingly has no evidence against him.

Awesome. I forgot just how much we were spoon-fed Idiot Plots on this show–it seemed so deep and relevant when I was eleven!

I do believe "They mack" will replace "They fight" in the Recap Hall of Fame.
