Like, a neighborhood outreach program, or literally just fix one other person's roof? It was unclear, to say the least. It seemed a little weird to me that Minkus and Cuban decided to give Maya money to "fix somebody else's roof," without actually explaining what that meant. That said, the conclusion here left something to be desired. "Yeah, we'll see how that works for you." I even enjoyed Mark Cuban's guest appearance near the end, as he heard foundation pitches from all the kids. Their father-son conversation towards the end was particularly touching. The sheer ridiculousness of it got a little cartoony (I could have done without the train going from place to place, and Maya's visit to the "gift shop"), but it was fun to see the gang indulge in Farkle's many toys, as Maya showed Farkle the ropes of living under tight money constraints.Ĭory's lesson was also on-point this week (though, once again, it had absolutely nothing to do with history), and I liked how Minkus came into it, by trying to see things from Farkle's point of view. It is interesting how we'd never seen Farkle's place until now, and it turns out that's because it's ginormous. That said, the message did get a little lost in the end. It also presented a good opportunity to bring Lee Norris back for a guest appearance as Minkus. For the most part, "Girl Meets Money" did a good job of relating wealth inequality to its two most disparate characters (both in terms of affluence and personality): Farkle and Maya.
