About this episode

The episode discusses Joey's traumatic experience after being mugged and the subsequent emotional fallout.

Remember how triumphant Joey was when she pitched that very fake snowball at a T sign at the end of "Guerrilla Filmmaking"? Well, we hope she does, because her night gets a lot worse from there: she's accosted by a mugger, and losing all her liquid assets AND her coat is just the start of her ordeal. It's also just the start of OUR ordeal, because Joey can't just survive a violent assault by a stranger; she has to make him and his whole family fall in love with her, too. Adam Grosswirth is really going above and beyond sitting in for our episode of "Downtown Crossing"!
