Ep 12. Scare Easy

Jules Cobb is back with another hilarious adventure in Cougar Town season 1 episode 12 titled "Scare Easy." As the name suggests, fear takes center stage in this episode as the gang embarks on an unforgettable scary movie night.

The episode kicks off with Jules and her best friend, Ellie, enjoying a leisurely day at home. However, Jules notices that Ellie seems to be increasingly anxious and jumpy. Concerned for her friend, Jules decides to dig a little deeper into Ellie's strange behavior.

Unbeknownst to Jules, her son Travis and his friend Kevin are planning a horror movie marathon night at her house. Jules, who's always up for some fun, suggests they turn it into a bigger event by inviting all their friends, including Ellie, Grayson, and Bobby. The gang eagerly agrees, looking forward to a night of scares and laughter.

As the gang gathers at Jules' house, the anticipation for the movie night builds. Everyone seems excited except for Ellie, whose fear levels go off the charts. Jules tries to understand what's troubling her friend, but Ellie remains tight-lipped, revealing nothing. Jules, determined to help Ellie overcome her fears, takes on the role of a fearless warrior, or so she believes.

The horror movie marathon begins with a classic slasher film that promises to send chills down everyone's spines. However, as the movie progresses, it becomes apparent that Jules' bravado is nothing but a facade. She jumps at each scare, screams at unexpected moments, and even spills her popcorn in an effort to protect herself, much to the amusement of her friends.

Meanwhile, Grayson, always ready with a witty comment or two, makes the experience even more enjoyable. His sarcastic remarks and playful banter with Jules create a light-hearted atmosphere amidst the horror on the screen. Bobby, on the other hand, fully embraces the terrifying aspects of the movies, enjoying every scare with childlike glee.

As the night goes on, it becomes evident that Jules is not the only one struggling with fear. Travis and Kevin, despite their tough demeanor, find themselves jumping at every twist and turn in the movies. The characters on the screen seem to come to life, leaving the audience gripping their seats in terror.

Back to Ellie, Jules remains determined to uncover her friend's secret fear. She employs various tactics, from gentle inquiry to pushy questioning, but Ellie continues to be evasive. It's not until Jules accidentally discovers a stuffed animal hidden in Ellie's purse that the truth starts to unravel.

The stuffed animal confirms Jules' suspicions - Ellie's fear stems from clowns. Known for her boisterous and lively personality, Jules decides to help Ellie face her fear head-on. With the help of her friends, Jules organizes a surprise clown-themed birthday party for Ellie, hoping to confront her friend's phobia once and for all.

The gang transforms Jules' house into a colorful carnival, complete with balloons, face paint, and even a live clown. As Ellie walks through the door, her eyes widen in both surprise and terror. With their minds set on helping Ellie, Jules and the gang encourage her to engage with the clown.

Will Ellie conquer her fear and find the courage to face this macabre clown head-on? Or will her phobia continue to haunt her dreams? As the episode comes to a close, viewers are left on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the outcome of this exhilarating and hilarious adventure.
