Here’s a quick recap of the episode:

• Monopoly - Tran brought a game like “Thailand Monopoly” to the “Bangs-giving” party.
• Sean Connery - Jess was trying to back-track what Coach told Ryan about “Bangs-giving” being a singles party, asking, “Did Coach say that with a Sean Connery accent? Did he say "shingles"? 'Cause he was… He actually meant shingles. Like the... like… Everybody here is a-a roofer.”
• Oasis - Jess shared that she sings songs by the band Oasis to herself and pretends they’re about Ryan caring for her.
