In the episode, the study group attends a fan convention for the fictional show Inspector Spacetime.
Meanwhile, Annie and Jeff allow themselves to get caught up in different personas, while Pierce and Shirley are selected to provide input for an American version of the show.
Abed (Danny Pudi) and Troy (Donald Glover) attend InSpecTiCon, an Inspector Spacetime convention.
Abed meets Toby (Matt Lucas), a fan he met online, and the two attend a panel without Troy and Britta.
Toby, noting that his own friend acted weird after getting married, invites Abed to a convention in London.
He noted that it lacked energy and humor and that the show focused more heavily on "couple stories" than it had during Dan Harmon's three seasons, though he appreciated several moments in the episode, such as Shirley standing up to network executives (which he attributed to "perhaps a bit of writers room rebellion").
[7] Josh Gondelman of Vulture gave it 2 out of 5 stars, praising the episode's premise but criticizing it for failing to fulfill its potential.
He was particularly critical of its depiction of women, especially in regard to Britta, and of the relationship between Jeff and Annie; he also noted that the episode forced him to consider if Harmon would have handled the premise better.
He praised its focus on the relationship between Troy and Abed but critiqued the characterizations of Annie and Britta, though he hesitated to declare that the show had lost its magic given its history of weak starts to seasons.
[9] Cory Barker of TV.com remarked in his review that the inclusion of four separate plots made the episode feel scattered and underdeveloped.
