Happy Friday TV fans! After watching FXX network’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia season 14 episode 8, we learned that sometimes we need to rely on a mathematical non emotional answer to find out what to do next, but perhaps the gang is over thinking it. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet.
In Wednesday night’s episode, “Paddy’s Has a Jumper,” the gang’s chance at getting Fish and Chips is interrupted by a potential jumper on their roof, which leads to a debate on whether or not they should get involved. Meanwhile, Frank crosses paths with a familiar face, and Cricket adds in his two cents.
My top 5 moments from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia season 14 episode 8 are:

“What we need is an algorithm.”
After finding out that a man named Brian O’Brien is about to jump off the roof of Paddy’s Pub, the gang wonders if they should really get involved. Mac (Ronald McDonald) claims that he would kill himself too with a name like that, but it looks like Dennis really wants to create an accurate algorithm that will tell them what to do next.
The Algorithm:
Could He?
+
Would He?
+
Should We?
=
Answer!
Seems simple enough. Let’s see how this goes.

“Where did you get that egg?”
Charlie seems super enthusiastic about getting his point across and he even decides to use his very own diorama with a hard boiled egg to determine if Brian O’Brien would actually die from falling off of the building.
Charlie thinks that he will probably get a broken leg based on the demonstration, but Dennis reminds him that perhaps a hard boiled egg is not an accurate representation of the human head.
Dee decides to eat the egg and we learn that Charlie apparently took it out of a hole somewhere, so she may be eating a rat’s egg right now…

“Why the hell are you wasting a perfectly good casaba melon?”
Apparently Frank keeps one in a safe for personal needs, but the gang decides that this should give them a better indication of whether or not Brian O’Brien would fall and die. Cricket shows up and seems to really be more interested in obtaining the casaba melon, but he does weigh in on the conversation.
Dennis reminds everyone that sometimes it’s more about how someone falls, thinking of Maureen Ponderosa’s death, as the gang hilariously reminds him that he pushed her…

“I would love to interview you!”
Meanwhile, Frank is focused on getting his melon back and decides to say that he is Brian O’Brien’s father, which gets him an interview with…
Jackie Denardo!
Speaking of melons…
Cue the music!
The lovely and full breasted Jackie Denardo is back, played by Jessica Collins. Jackie Denardo has appeared in episodes: The Storm of the Century (Season 7, episode 6) and The Gang Saves the Day (Season 9, episode 6).
Dennis has quite the crush on her and the same music accompanied her when he first crossed paths with her in the store, which led to an extremely awkward conversation between them.
Frank realizes that he now has the opportunity to rub this in Dennis’s face, as he continues to pretend to be the jumper’s father to get some screen time.

“We could become a hot spot for jumpers.”
Toward the end of the episode, the gang realizes that the jumper dying might actually be good for business, realizing that they can capitalize on it. Cricket offers to push him, but the gang isn’t too crazy about calling it murder.
Before they can execute the plan, Brian O’Brien comes down from the roof to reunite with his father, but is more than disappointed when he comes face-to-face with Frank.
The gang gets their Fish and Chips and it’s back to their television show, which they now decide that they don’t really like anyway and perhaps the algorithm was wrong after all…
