The highlight here is definitely the alternate American Musical from 1.9, with Josie and Mike as "hang-gliders in love" (and he manages to do a "go down" joke relatively tastefully), who meet tripping Tony and out-of-place John in a maze.  (Josie gives John a sweet hug at the end.)

The weakest game is also from 1.9 though, the "burgundy handbag" Rap.  The two games from 1.7 are arguably better than what aired: Story, with some Tony/John (as Russians), and Party Quirks, where Tony makes the first of his "go upstairs" offers.  Josie and John do FATS and he's more flirty than usual, although awkwardly.  And Josie and Stephen team up again, this time for Every Other Line.
