Riding the Ethic Express!!: The Good Place "Chapter 19: The Trolley Problem"

Image result for the good place the trolley problem

As Chidi tries hard to teach Michael ethics, Tahani and Jason seek help about their relationship.

Just as Chidi teaches the trolley problem for the class, Michael isn't getting it at all. Michael puts Chidi on the spot of the trolley problem by putting Chidi, Eleanor and himself into a running train with Chidi making the decision on who to save and not and it lead to more and more. But even though Michael was just torching Chidi once again, but Chidi wasn't playing and shows his real frustration towards Michael by kicking him out of the class.

Michael tells Chidi how that it was "my bad" to Chidi but he wasn't taking it. Even Eleanor tries to fix things but it all came down to Michael showing his human emotional side and really apologize to Chidi and this time really accepted it.

Meanwhile, Tahani and Jason seek therapist help about their relationship and the one person they go to is Janet. After talking to Janet about how much they love each other and grown, Janet suffers from set backs from thumb popping off and floating away to frog coming out of her mouth to even an earthquake in the area. Janet comes to Michael to tell him that she's glitching and asks him how he is.

"The Torrey Problem" was such an amazing episode and probably one of my favorites (again) of this season. William Jackson Harper shines in this episode as Chidi in this episode, showing sides of emotions we never seen him before do. The writing was so so good and solid. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch The Good Place Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.
