Community 1x02

The Cricket had no idea Spanish 101 could be this hilarious, but is becoming a fast fan of Community! In this episode we get introduced to Señor Chang (Ken Jeong, The Office), our friends’ outrageous Spanish teacher. The class gets a team assignment, and while Jeff is switching with Abed to team up with Britta, Pierce manages to switch with Britta to team up with Jeff. Meanwhile, after Britta tells them of the political assassinations of Guatemalan journalists, Shirley and Annie organize an on-campus protest against the many deaths due to systematic violence in Guatemala. Our disbarred barrister is mighty bummed being stuck in the same room with asswipe Hawthorne, but when Jeff believes he might win Britta’s heart if he commits himself to Pierce’s crazy presentation, he agrees to entertain the class to the most outlandish scenes ever observed on any community college. Afterwards, Britta tells Jeff that a smart guy like him would know that “no woman in that class would be able to look at you as a sexually viable candidate ever again.” And she loves toying with his feelings like that – if only to play hard to get. In the end, Abed and Troy show they’ve barely mastered even the basics of Spanish, when in turn they rap verses along the other’s beatbox: “Donde está el biblioteca, mi llamo t-bone, la araña discoteca. / Discoteca, muñeca, la biblioteca está en bigote grande, perro, manteca. / Manteca, bigote, gigante, pequeño cabeza es nieve, cerveza es bueno. / Buenos díaz, mi gusto patatas frías, el bigote de las cabras es Cameron Díaz.” Ahahaha!
