Kimmy Schmidt is back in season 2 and ready to take on the world, one roller-skate at a time. In the opening episode, we find Kimmy struggling to get back on her feet after her ordeal in the bunker. She is still dealing with the trauma of being kidnapped and held captive for 15 years and is desperate to find a sense of normalcy in her life.
Enter her roommate and best friend, Titus Andromedon. Titus has a plan to help Kimmy move on from her past and start enjoying life again. He decides to take her to the local roller-skating rink to teach her how to skate. But as anyone who has ever tried to roller-skate for the first time knows, it's not as easy as it looks.
Kimmy is hesitant at first and afraid of falling, but Titus is determined to get her back on her feet. He coaches her through the basics and, before long, she is gliding around the rink like a pro. But it's not all smooth sailing for Kimmy. She has to learn how to stop, avoid obstacles, and deal with the other skaters on the rink.
Despite the challenges she faces, Kimmy is determined to master roller-skating. She sees it as a metaphor for her life: she may have stumbled along the way, but she's not giving up. With Titus by her side, she's ready to face whatever comes her way.
Of course, this being Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, there is plenty of humor along the way. Kimmy's wobbly attempts at skating are hilarious, and Titus' larger-than-life personality adds another layer of comedy to the episode. But there are also moments of poignancy as Kimmy works through her anxiety and fear.
As always, the show also tackles serious issues. Kimmy's trauma is never far from the surface, and her roller-skating journey is a way for her to confront it head-on. The episode touches on themes of resilience, perseverance, and the power of friendship.
Overall, "Kimmy Goes Roller Skating!" is a fun and charming start to season 2. It picks up where the first season left off and sets the stage for more zany adventures with Kimmy and her friends. Whether you're a fan of the show or new to the world of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, this episode is well worth a watch.
