Note: For those searching for a “DVD5” version of this episode — yes, the standard DVD release of Season 2 compresses episodes onto single-layer discs, but the quality of this episode? Pure Blu-ray gold. The episode kicks off with a classic Ava move: she announces that the school’s heating system is broken… in the middle of a Philadelphia winter. Instead of fixing it, she hands out space heaters she “found” (read: probably stolen from a hotel).

Gregory watches from the sidelines, simultaneously amused and attracted to her futile determination. Instead of fixing it, she hands out space

This isn’t just a joke. The broken heating becomes the central metaphor for the episode: The A-Plot: Janine vs. The Vending Machine Janine, ever the optimist, decides that the vending machine companies are exploiting the school. A juice box costs $2.50. A bag of stale chips? $3.00. Her mission? Get the prices lowered.
