Week 4- The Passion of the Mandy

Last Tuesday the episode of Last Man Standing that I watched was called The Passion of the Mandy. It was all about his 17 year old daughter trying to make it through the world while doing something that she loved to do, turned out she didn't like it. It also has the mom faking a heart attack in order to make it look like she didn't fall asleep during her meeting. She realizes that doing that wasn't the best thing to do in that situation.

Mike Baxter shows up for work one day and his boss comes in mad. Mike approaches him and tries to figure out why he's mad all of a sudden. Ed (Mike's boss) tells him that they are closing his favorite barber shop that he has been going to since he was a little kid. Mike doesn't know what to say or do and he's lost because he wants to make Ed happy. Mandy shows up to her dad's work asking him about her car, she says that it's making weird noises. Mike doesn't look to focused and Mandy wants to know whats wrong. He tells her and Mandy knows this business website where you can post things about a business. Mandy and Mike post nice things about Ed's barber shop, next thing you know a lot of people were showing up to the barber shop.

Mike for the first time is happy and proud of Mandy. He tells her that she can become a marketing director for company's. Mandy thinks that she might like doing that type of work and Mike thinks that she can become big and rich. Ed finds out about the website for the barber shop and he is not happy. He tells Mike that the person who did that was stupid because he wanted to buy the property and make it his. Ed then realizes who it was but it's already to late because Mandy feels like she doesn't have any hope. Ed goes over to Mike's house and apologizes to Mandy, he brings her a bottle of wine. Mike takes that away and Mandy takes his apology and still is convinced that she doesn't want to become a market director.

During this episode Mike tells Vanessa that she should slow down in her work, she disagrees with him. Vanessa is working on a PowerPoint for her company to try to get a promotion. She is 100% convinced that she is going to nail the meeting, and get the promotion. The night before the meeting she didn't get any sleep at all, she was tired. When her boss is ready for her group to present the PowerPoint, her boss has another announcment that he makes. Vanessa falls asleep and lands on the floor. When on the floor she doesn't want anyone to know that she fell asleep, so he fakes a heart attack. Her co-workers calls 911 and they rush her to the hopital. When they release her from the hopital she tells Mike what she, and of course he makes fun of her. She feels bad that she lied, but she didn't want anyone to know that she feel asleep.
