- Quotes
Princey: There is a way of simultaneously make them feel special, and show them how awesome you are!
Thomas: How?
Princey: [dreamy face and voice] You find up what might be making their life difficult...
Dad: [same dreamy voice] Yeah?
Princey: [suddenly frowning] And you kill it!
Anxiety: [concerned] What?
Princey: [to Valerie, while epic music starts playing] You there, young maiden! What is burdening your life? Perhaps an evil stepmother or a dragon witch?
Logic: A dragon witch?
Valerie: [looking to the right, with an over the top distressed voice] Yes, this dragon witch has been ruining my life!
Dragon Witch: [off screen] F... *bleeping sound*... ck you, Valerie!
Princey: [Rising a samurai sword] I shall save you!
Thomas: Is that a samurai sword?
[Princey yells angrily while running off screen to the right. Then swordfighting sounds are heard. Dad watches with thrilled expression. Thomas also looks up startled. Anxiety looks with a serious face to the camera, breaking the fourth wall. Logic sighs]
Dragon Witch: [off screen] Aw, my spleen!
Princey: [coming back looking exhausted] All saved!
Valerie: [emotional] You made me feel special! And you're awesome!
Princey: [with face of satisfaction] What can I say? I'm a mean spleen stabbing machine!
Logic: [whispering to Thomas] In no reality would this be a situation.
[Thomas nods and agrees, saying "Sure" with no sound]
Princey: And afterwards, you do a grand gesture!
Dad: [pointing up] That wasn't a grand gesture?
Princey: You wed them!
Princey: [to Valerie] Will you marry me?
Valerie: [gasping] Yes!
Valerie: [sighs, then dramatically over the top with telenovela accent, while Princey holds her in his arms dramatically] ¡Ay, te he esperado tanto, Thomas! ¿De verdad que me amas?
Princey: [same telenovela accent] ¡Te lo afirmo, te amo con todo mi corazón!
Valerie: [sighs again] ¡Ay!
Logic: [suprised] How do you know Spanish?
Thomas: [weird expression] I don't even know Spanish!

Kudos to Valerie Torres-Rosario's guest appearance as the hypothetical romantic crush for Thomas ("Isn't it funny watching Thomas play straight?") She does not only stand in as that hypothetical romantic interest: she adapts herself into each of the Sides' idea of a crush and gives a blast of a performance each and everytime. If she's with Logic, she's follows his logical thinking of verification and falsation and answers dichotomically to his inquiries with a simple almost robotic Yes or No. If Virgil meddles in, with Logic or with Morality's scenarios, she acts as anxiously put off as he would have expected her to act. If she interacts with Patton, she becomes a playful child like him. If she interacts with Roman, she becomes the damsel in distress he would like to rescue in his world of neverending romantic fantasy, including an unexpected and funny burst into Spanish language both by her and by Thomas (by the way, kudos to Thomas who got an excelent Spanish pronunciation as Roman, even though he doesn't know a word of Spanish). She gives all those performances without a single flaw, and her comedic talent is spot on in all of them.
It's actually very hard to find any flaws to this episode. Performances are spot on, the dialogues are funny and cut to the chase in regards of exposing the topic, and we find a couple twists here and there in the episode that are totally unexpected. With all of this said, it's only fair to say, welcome Joan, your talent is not unnoticed and you are the best complement to Thomas' talent he, and viewers of the series, could ever ask for. And it's only the beginning.
