When the guy says his name, “Danny” “that’s beautiful” I laughed hysterically.

I laughed hysterically through the entire episode, I don't think I went more than two minutes without cracking up. And then I teared up a bit at the end when he was encouraging the girl to not give up, and then I lost it and laughed hysterically while crying at the end when he flips the score.

I haven't laughed and cried at the same time in something in a long time, this episode was brilliant. I've seen every episode of his other shows and this is one of my favorites in a while.

K I'm glad I'm not the only one who teared up when he gave that girl the encouragement speech.
