When
this episode was new, I thought the title was "Argh Five" because the
letter "V" also stands for the number five in Roman Numerals. It wasn't
until much later when I understood the wordplay they were going for.
Sam's parents are not as responsible as she'd like and their latest impulse buy takes them on a road tip to an unfamiliar area.
One
of the things I liked about the episode was Sam. In the episode, Sam
seems to be a very no-nonsense type of person who's extremely committed
to her schoolwork and I gotta be honest, I think that's the first time
this show has had a main character like this, though I could be wrong.
The
other thing I liked about the episode was how the story was told. In
this episode, whenever Sam is in or around the R.V, she starts seeing
things like glaring headlights, hearing sounds like horns honking and
children chanting, and even believes that the R.V moved by itself at one
point. Throughout the episode, it isn't made very clear if these things
are really happening or if Sam is just nuts until the very end.
The
only problem I had with this episode is that once I got to a certain
point in the third act, I could predict how the ending was going to play
out. However, the ending didn't really ruin the episode for me. Why?
Well, I'm not going to spoil it but there's a part in the ending that I
thought was very well done.
Overall,
Argh V was quite solid and I can safely say that it's certainly a vast
improvement over the last episode, Near Mint Condition.
Overall Grade: A-
