- Quotes
Johnny Rose: [scolding] No Don, here's the joke. The joke is that I'm sitting at a half-decent restaurant with my wife, and our friends and all you two have done is complain about the food and pretend that you didn't leave us high and dry after we lost everything.
Moira Rose: I'm past that point now!
Johnny Rose: I'm not quite past it yet Moira. You wrote us off, Don. Not a nickel. Not a phone call. Not an e-mail? Roland and Jocelyn here could not have been more generous with what little they have. They found us a place to live. They lent us their truck when we needed it. They invited us to their parties. They even offered to take us out to dinner tonight.
Roland Schitt: Just to be clear, Johnny, we were always going to split the bill it's just with the coupon...
Jocelyn Schitt: [Whispering] Roland? Roland? No!
[Jocelynn looks smug]
Johnny Rose: And that town you passed through? It's not called Schittsville. It's called Schitt's Creek and it's where we live.

From the storyline of the parent's anniversary, we got to see both the past and present lives of the Rose family come together, and witness a positive change in their outlook of their situation. The awkward dinner became a moment of triumph for the Roses and the residents of Schitt's Creek over the snobby former friends.
I also noticed the subtle changes in Alexis' naivete/narcissism in how she was able to compare Ted's reaction to her hooking up with Mutt after their breakup, to the appearance of Mutt's new girlfriend on the scene. I do love Alexis' character's kookiness, but when you're watching a series like this it's nice to have a little bit of realistic character growth, even if they do jump straight back into their previous kooky ways.
Lost a mark for not being long enough. :)
