Lauren goes after landlords, lambasts the male tendency to ~embellish~ stories, and embraces her secret inner Masshole to tell Sam the story of an oft-forgotten character in the tale of Paul Revere's famed midnight adventure.

Grab your plus one, put on your dancing shoes, and consider this episode your cocktail hour.
