- Title: Bob’s Burgers – They Slug Horses, Don’t They?
- wiki: link
Sisters is the theme of “They Slug Horses, Don’t They?” as Louise (Kristen Schaal) and Tina (Dan Mintz) get in an escalating argument after Louise borrows Tina’s toy without asking, and then breaks it when attempting to give it back to her sister. Her attempt to avoid apologizing by creating a cartoon of them as the characters of each of their toys (Louise as a slug and Tina as the horse) that blames Louise for everything only escalates the argument further. Unexpectedly, it’s Gail (Megan Mullally) who plays peacemaker between the girls providing an example of her own struggles with their mother.
For an episode where the antagonism between the two girls continues to build there’s an unexpectedly sweet ending between the pair finding some common ground. The battling comics, which become animated as the girls draw them, are quite clever as well as is the choice of toys for both girls (Tina falling for the horse with glasses and Louise in love with the slugs full of hidden weapons). In the end, family is family no matter how many toys or collages they may mangle.
