'DTF St. Louis' Episode 6 “The Denny’s Plan” Review: A Convoluted Setup, a Sad Turn for Floyd, and Finale Theories

About this episode

The hosts review the penultimate episode of DTF St. Louis, discussing its emotional depth and comedic elements.

Recording while on vacation and acknowledging possible audio issues, the hosts discuss the penultimate DTF St. Louis episode, “The Denny’s Plan,” calling it one of the saddest yet containing a few strong comic bits. They focus on an uncomfortable opening that casts Carol harshly, Floyd’s worsening insecurity and loss of passion for his work, and Clark’s elaborate, arguably preposterous scheme to pay a Denny’s waiter (and then a random man) to flirt with Floyd for an ego boost, culminating in a devastating reveal aided by sign language. They argue the episode feels like plot cleanup, clarifying the Tiger Tiger thread and emphasizing the pool house mystery. They note clues involving Carol’s son and the bike, debate suspects (Carol, Floyd’s son, Emmy, others), mention weather-themed music with outliers like the Zombies’ “This Will Be Our Year,” and preview hopes for a strong finale and future coverage. 00:00 Vacation Check In01:24 Sick Kid and Parenting Talk02:57 Episode Setup The Denny's Plan03:50 Is This a Filler Episode07:19 Carol's Cruel Hotel Scene09:41 The Tiger Profile Scheme11:05 Denny's Awkward Solicitation13:30 Sign Language Heartbreak15:59 Cleaning Up the Mystery20:06…
