Trivia
Sarah gets a speaking line for the second episode in a row (her fifth in the show's history). She went nearly a year from her initial appearance to her first line, then nearly 3 years from her first to second lines, then nearly a year between her third and fourth lines.

Goofs
Sandra doesn't want to go to Cheyenne and Mateo's movie night because she doesn't trust their level of cleanliness. It was established in High Volume Store (2018) and other episodes that Mateo is obsessive about cleanliness.

Quotes
Glenn: So Garrett. How are those pizzas? Are you enjoying them and feeling appreciated?
Garrett: People seem to like them, but I think we're good on pizza, Glenn.
Glenn: Yeah, well, it just... Some of the white employees were upset that they didn't get any pizza, and, you know, the point of all this was to make everyone happy, so...
Garrett: I thought the point of this was to apologize to Black employees. Either they're reparations, or they're not.
Glenn: Okay, well, can't you think of it like this? Like, for you, the pizzas are reparations for racism. And for the white employees, they're reparations for not getting pizza.
Garrett: Okay, so it's an all lives matter pizza party? Fine, great. Okay, that's perfect.
[over PA]
Garrett: Attention, all Cloud 9 employees in all departments. Please report to the break room for pizza because apparently, now everyone gets pizza. Never mind that the basic infrastructure of this country makes it so that one group of people gets way more pizza than others! Or that some of us spent over 400 years forcibly making pizza for white people!

Great! I don't understand the 1 reviews...

This episode was funny, well tempered and topical. It was a return to engrossing comedic timing and topics with the group as a whole, since Ferrera's departure. I don't understand the 1 star reviews. However they mainly seem written and crafted by individuals who do not like to be reminded of what's going on in the world as it relates to their own behaviors. It's ok for us to watch a Covid episode but race, is a step too far? In any case, what is going on thus far has been awesome. I am thoroughly infuriated with America Ferrera, but applaud the writers and cast because they have succeeded in carrying on the show. I also love Tony, Sandra's adopted son. I do know because of how much I love this show, and the parallel it draws from my own life of moving to a random town, and starting over that it won't be on much longer. However, I love Superstore! And I hope it's on for many more seasons.
