Have you ever had an unidentifiable odor in your home?

Here though, everyone knows whats producing the stink.

What do you love most about a Chip Driver mystery?

Is it the liberal use of the phrase pants tent?

I know its hard to choose.

Accent on the embarrassment.

This idiotic novel, though, does present a real dilemma for ourGood Placegang.

On one side we have Eleanor, who understands how tenuous this whole Brent situation is.

Perhaps incapable of fixing Brent, Eleanor and Michael have been muddling along with minor cosmetic improvements.

All she knows is that in the Good Place she shouldnt have to deal with this kid of bullshit.

Also, She was the bang out of girl you couldnt take in all at once or youd die.

You had to take her in bit-by-bit, like a great work of art, like the Louvre.)

As for Michael, he sees the whole Chip Driver fiasco as a potential learning opportunity.

The advice doesnt sink in.

Then he pulls out the most irritating non-apology possible: Im sorry if you were offended.

The Chip Driver novel has another unexpected consequence.

Thats not a long-term solution.

So is there any hope here?

Throughout, Michael focuses on the positives.

(He just storms off.)

But Michael sees something to love, even in the mire.

The same could be said of Brent.

He wrote an awful novel.

But at least he was trying to achieve something.
