Overall, it was a pretty good episode. A lot better than last week's at any rate.
I gave it a 7. It would have been an 8, but no matter how much I like Yuki, I don't want to watch her read for 3+ minutes and the radio was not enough to carry the scene.
Especially when I knew that in another part of the school Haruhi and Itsuki were taking pictures of Mikuru. Still, it was a solid episode and a nice look into the lives of the SOS dan when they aren't dealing with a major crisis like closed space, giant cave crickets, or hunting for aliens, umas, ect.
