Why This Must Be Read: An episode tag to "Trio" in Season 4 (where Rodney gets stuck in a hole with Carter and Keller). This is hilarious and cute. From an unpromising, socially inept start, Rodney manages to make John not only think about it, but even kind of obsess about it. So who would you rather, John?
“It’s called ‘Who’d You Rather’,” says Rodney, avid and leaning across the table and eating his pudding cup instead of his bean salad.
John twists his mouth. Classic Rodney: the guy is so thrilled whenever he has what most would consider a normal social interaction, he has to go around for days afterward flaunting the fact. It's Katie and her weird ethical paradoxes all over again.
“See, it’s just — you ask someone, who’d you rather, and you name two people, and then the other person has to say who they’d rather, of those two people — who’d they’d rather fool around with, that is — and then it’s their turn and –”
“Rodney,” says John, losing patience. “I’m familiar with the game.”
“Oh?” says Rodney, a little deflated. His expression brightens again almost immediately. “Oh, good, so — okay. Who’d you rather — Brad Pitt or George Clooney?”
