Reception
Maggie Fremont of Vulture rated the episode 5 out of 5 stars, noting the character development of the Rose family, and wrote that "Throughout this show's run, most people, including me, like to discuss how much Schitt's Creek has changed the Rose family for the better, but in this episode, we are reminded that the Roses have changed [the town] and its inhabitants too, none more than Stevie.[2]
