  I think maybe he already has.

Episode 5.11

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Why didn't we get to see more of Lindsay and Melanie reuniting?
  Because Showtime hates me.

  Yes. Stark raving.

  No T-shirts this time, but she was wearing a necklace that said "SEXY."

Episode 5.10

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• What are they trying to do to Michael this season?
  I dunno, but I think they're trying to drive me mad.
• Will Justin ever get over himself?
  We'd need at least thirty more episodes for that to happen, not three.

  I have no idea.

  "If you believe in telekinesis, raise my hand."

Episode 5.08

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Is Brian really going to give in to all the pressure to "grow up"?
  I can't even think about it. It's a travesty.
• Why won't Lindsay just get down on her knees and beg already?
  My, wouldn't that be fun!
• What did Deb's T-shirt say?
  "I don't repeat gossip, so you'd better listen close."

Episode 5.07

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Why are they dragging out the Lindsay/Melanie thing?
  It's easier than writing an actual storyline for them.
• Is that really it for Justin and Brian?
  I have a feeling that'll never be it.
• What did Deb's T-shirt say?
  "Give 'em an inch, they want all ten." Or twelve. I couldn't quite see.

Episode 5.06

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Why was Ted so nice to that guy from the gym?
  He's Ted. Try to accept it.
• Is there hope for Melanie and Lindsay?
  I say yes. But what do I know? I'm a sucker.
• What did Deb's T-shirt say?
  I think it just had a picture of a pink plate on it.

Episode 5.05

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Why is Justin suddenly wanting Brian to change?
  The better question is why didn't Brian see this coming?
• Why is Michael suddenly being nice?
  I guess sometimes the character inconsistencies swing the right way.
• What did Deb's/Loretta's T-shirt(s) say?
  Nuthin'! We got nuthin' this time!! Unless I missed it in the midst of all the drama-rama.

Episode 5.04

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Why didn't anyone talk Ted out of the nip and tuck?
  Maybe they were hoping it would fix the mope and whine.
• Why is Brian still Michael's friend?
  Old habits die hard, I guess. Or maybe "hard" is the wrong word here.
• What did Deb's/Loretta's T-shirt(s) say?
  "Life is a bowl of fairies" and "It's a fine line between lesbian and hockey mom."

Episode 5.03

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Did Deb really quit her job?
  Looks like it. But nothing's ever what it looks like on this show, except for Brian.
• Could Ted be more annoying?
  No.
• What did Deb's T-shirt(s) say?
  One had a picture of a tea kettle on it and said "Caution: under pressure." Another had a recycling symbol on it and said "I've been used."

Episode 5.01 and 5.02

THIS WEEK'S QAF FAQ:

• Is Scott Lowell (Ted) wearing a fat suit or did he really gain that much weight?
  I'm not sure. His paunch could be prosthetic, but that double chin looks awfully authentic.
• Why is Melanie being so evil?
  I think I might be asking myself this all season long.
• Why is Michael being such a jerk?
  It's all about the drama, baby.
• What did Deb's T-shirt(s) say?
  One said "Stop whining: you're making my cat horny!" I couldn't tell what the second word was on the Pinot shirt. Sigh.
