My overall rating of "Better off Ted"'s Season 1: 4/10.
Maybe I'm just too far to the "lawful" side of the alignment chart to enjoy plots like this, but it's very nonsensical and unbelievable, especially in how Ted behaves. And while Veronica is a "lawful" joy throughout the episode, her actions making the plot-twist kind of go against her established character a bit too much. It makes me wish that the series had more continuous plots, because the events of this episode would certainly prompt a massive investigation with people (very likely including Veronica, as the main perpetrator, who certainly would've been seen collecting the badges - what a dumb plot, good grief!..) having to lose their jobs.
And as for the comedic aspects: this episode isn't really funny, give or take. Dr. Bhamba (now here's a "chaotic" alignment character) provides maybe the most laughs, but even that's not enough.
