The first appearance of Amber Tamblyn as Charlie Harper's estranged daughter, Jenny, the episode was written by series co-creator Chuck Lorre and Susan McMartin and directed by James Widdoes.
Berta then tells Jenny stories about Charlie while they wait for Evelyn, who upon arriving, begins making plans for the two of them.
They eventually find her at a bus stop, where she says that she only wanted to meet her family and leave, hoping not to cause a stir.
The four of them go to the bar where Jenny was allegedly conceived, where she convinces an attractive waitress to come with them back to Walden's house.
"[3] This is also the first episode of the series to not feature Angus T. Jones as Jake Harper as a main cast star.
[4] However, he does return in season 12 as a guest star for the series finale, the only episode to feature both Jones and Tamblyn.
CarterMatt said "We do find the potential for comedy here to be pretty high with Tamblyn, she was a pretty funny addition to the group" and that "we feel better about Jenny being on the show now than we would Jake if he was still turning up", but adds "Two and a Half Men minus Charlie Sheen is best when Walden's at the helm, and having too much Harper may serve as a reminder of how much Charlie is missed.
