Okay, maybe that piece isn’t explicit in every scene, but her unavailability due to her new partner is mentioned multiple times as the reason for the loosening on their friendship when the episode focuses more on Bow’s attempts to force herself to be best friends with her husband, it’s a lot more rewarding and humorous. The whole crux of the story is Dre and his BFF have drifted apart, the only reason given for it being that she’s in a relationship and just can’t balance the stress of having TWO men in her life at the same time. The former, which employs Tyra Banks as Dre’s life-long best friend, is abundantly predictable, from how it causes friction between Dre and his wife (who is jealous about how well they get along), to how a woman is unable to balance a male best friend and partner at the same time. “Plus Two” neatly delineates itself into two familiar sitcom stories, one I really enjoy (the “best friend” guest star arrives from out of town, mainly to observe the weird intricacies of a friendship) and one I really, really hate (children trying to become YouTube sensations there’s really nothing I hate more than watching kids desperately pander in the name of chasing fame). Unfortunately, it’s undeniably an episode that is hard to like. As always, “Plus Two” is certainly a half hour with its own merits, particularly in the third act.
That is, “Plus Two Isn’t a Thing” is 22 minutes of frustratingly selfish people working towards a somewhat noble end, most of the larger emotional notes undercut by its characters’ elitism, or distracted by the many African-American guest stars they use to highlight ‘big’ episodes of a season.
