"Managers' Conference" 

When Glenn gives up two tickets to a Cloud 9 managing conference, Amy and Jonah take it after learning it's an all-paid trip with the works. As they get there, it is his to get in, but Jeff gets them in by sneaking them in with other IDs. As they try to leave, Amy learns that the managers get free stuff and take advantage of it.

Jonah tells Amy that she should go for a manager position, and after meeting a couple of managers who don't think their workers should get high wages. After that, ma, maybe she should go for a managing position.

Garrett and Dina fight over who can wrap gifts for their customers best. As soon as they had the perfect wrapping on a blessing, they were done.

Glenn asked Mateo for his social security number,r as it showed in the records that it belonged to someone else. This worried Mateo that this could be the last we see him. But when Glenn asked again, Mateo gave him another set of numbers, and when Glenn checked it out, it was right.

"Managers' Conference" was a hilarious episode that felt like a fall finale. This episode should have ended up being the fall finale with the Christmas moment of Glenn helping Mateo. From Garrett and Dina to Mateo and Cheyenne, I couldn't get enough of watching these rich and well-developed characters play to each other. Good writing and performance make the frecareeres as good as they would be in an episode of Superstore. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

"Shadowing Glenn" Fall Finale

In the fall finale, Amy decides to go for managing training and asks Glenn for approval. But he decides to train her in the comedy version of Karate Kid. He teaches her what he knows, but Amy doesn't think she needs to know all this since she thinks she knows what to do.

That was until Amy made a mistake with one of the orders and tried to get the shippers to ship them back. But Glenn comes and saves the day and gets the other orders returned.

Cheyenne and Mateo decide to go into the business together and come up with a funny name, Cheateo. It may or may not work. But I would think it would be fun.

Meanwhile, Dina is looking for a new career and gets Jonah to help after he was the one who called out while Amy watched Glenn's managing video. After turning down almost every job, there might be one that she would be good at.

"Shadowing Glenn" was a well-written, well-performed episode. The cast puts on a tremendous performance. Amy and Glenn's storyline gives that Karate Kid at work feel to it. Lauren Ash's performance was terrific, And even Cheyenne and Mateo's storyline could beat its best this season with them working together to run their own business. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Superstore when they return in March next year and catch up with episodes on NBC.com and the NBC app.
