A good solid 10/10, because we got some backstory with Lars as well as how different he acts when he's with Sadie in private.
I would have wanted some more interaction on Lars in Steven's body, and I wonder if this is an actual power, or if it's some sort of freak(y Friday) accident.

Wasn't a fan of this episode. I personally found it worse than Fusion Cuisine! I could understand Steven possessing one of the Watermelon Stevens since he created those, but not Lars! HE'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT! Plus, it didn't seem like they switched bodies, but more like Steven possessed him.
I'll quote some stuff from TheMysteriousMrEnter to back myself up some.
"Look, this isn't some cartoon from the 20s. YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW A SET OF RULES!!!
The good news about fictional series is that the rules can be whatever you want. You can have stuff like a Dog with the ability to morph, or a land where flying horses control the weather. But the thing is that you have to Follow The Rules you created for your series, and you can't just change the rules all willy-Milly when you think it's convenient for the plot!"
"Remedial Writing: Having Magic Users in a show means MORE (Consistent) Rules, not Less!"
"I've read Mad Libs with more coherence and consistency than this. This lack of Consistency is not just a mark of laziness, IT IS AN ADMISSION OF LAZINESS!"
"You see, in a competent show, we'd at least get some type of clue to a reason early on for these sorts of happenings. And the answer would be revealed at the end. But we need some type of valid clues or reasons! YOU CAN'T JUST HAVE THIS KIND OF STUFF JUST HAPPEN OUT OF NOWHERE BECAUSE.... PLOT!"
That doesn't even go into what Steven does, he makes a total fool out of Lars! I understand Steven is supposed to be young and such, but by this point in the series he has developed quote a bit beyond his childish stuff and learned nuance with his personality. He should be able to take the hint that Lars and Sadie don't like each other like that! BTW, this reminds me of what happens when you try to ship people in real life (and why I dislike shipping in general), it never ever works out the way you want things to. He also did this sort of thing before in the Island Adventure episode, and it nearly got him, Lars and Sadie killed by that invisible Monster Gem!
Lars does seem like he's had a hard-knocks life for sure though. I know he only wanted to make Lars a better person and all, but he did things more like something I'd expect Fanboy and Chum Chum to do here! It makes no sense! Seeing Lars and Steven actually switch bodies would've been interesting as a way for them to get to know each other on a more personal level since they're pretty much total opposites (and give better reason behind it), but no, Steven's body's just been lying asleep and unconscious this whole time with Lars's consciousness trapped in it, or for that matter, maybe not even that but Steven just SOMEHOW doing something like out of Mindjack. The sad part is, almost everybody preferred Steven as Lars!
Also, that "Fangs of Love" thing, I wonder if that was a reference to "Twilight"? |

Laramie is a girl's name. Transgender confirmed. I don't get it. It's a unisex name... |

Problem is that I've heard so many people LEGITIMATELY claim he was Transgender after this episode. |
