Why does Marty Funkhouser keep putting up with Larry? After all, LD has a nasty penchant for stealing from the Funkhousers: in season 4, he snatched a golf club from the coffin at Marty's father's funeral, and in this episode, he pinches flowers from the roadside memorial dedicated to Marty’s late mother. Larry gifts the flowers to a variety of women, including the headmistress of a prestigious private school, only for it all to blow up in his face spectacularly. After Sammi Greene’s application is denied when Larry is caught repossessing the flowers, Susie shrieks, “Just knowing you is a liability!” Marty is none too impressed, either; righteously furious, he avows to Larry, “If you weren’t my best friend, I would take my bare hands and pop your head off your neck.” Turning to Cheryl, Larry demures, “He’s not my best friend.” Funk-Man, maybe it’s time to reconsider this friendship.—A.W.
