Garfunkel & Oates season 1 episode 7 titled "Eggs" is a music-comedy show that follows the lives of Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci, more famous as Garfunkel & Oates. In this episode, the duo explores the prospect of having children and the struggles that come with it.

The episode opens with Garfunkel & Oates at a family gathering where they are bombarded with questions about whether they're planning to have kids. While Kate is indifferent about having children, Riki is more thoughtful about it and realizes that time is running out for her. This sets off a chain of events that leads to both of them considering various options for having children.

Riki first considers finding a sperm donor, while Kate is more interested in adoption. They both navigate through the maze of requirements and processes involved in these options. Riki meets with various potential donors and even entertains the idea of having a child with a gay couple. Meanwhile, Kate explores adoption and meets with adoption agencies to learn more about the procedure.

As they both delve deeper into their respective options, they realize that it's not going to be an easy ride. Riki discovers that most donors already have families of their own and have no interest in being a part of the child's life. She also realizes that she will have to raise the child all on her own and that she isn't fully prepared for it. Kate, on the other hand, learns that adoption is not as simple as just filling out a form. She has to go through a rigorous screening process, and she isn't sure if she will be approved.

Throughout the episode, Garfunkel & Oates sing highly relatable songs that touch on the various issues that come with having children. Their songs are funny and witty and provide the perfect antidote to the situations they are in.

As the episode progresses, Riki and Kate's quest to become parents leads them to a fertility clinic. They are faced with a mountain of paperwork, needles, and a rather intrusive doctor who insists on knowing every detail of their lives. The whole experience is both hilarious and cringe-worthy and ends with an unexpected outcome.

In the end, both Riki and Kate come to a realization about their lives. Riki learns that she doesn't necessarily need a child to feel complete, and Kate realizes that she is happy with the life she has chosen. They accept that having children is not going to define their lives and that they are okay with that.

Garfunkel & Oates season 1 episode 7, "Eggs," presents a realistic and humorous take on the challenges of having children. The episode provides an insight into the struggles couples face when trying to conceive and the various options available to them. It also highlights the fact that sometimes life doesn't go as planned, and that's okay. Garfunkel & Oates' music is delightful, and their funny, relatable lyrics add to the charm of the show.
