Pretty fun short. I wasn’t initially sure about the pairing of Langdon and Billy Gilbert, but it surprisingly is very funny, with Gilbert going totally over-the-top and Langdon having to have confused and scared reactions, both of which he does well. I especially like when Langdon is so full of fear, he quacks at every possible moment, since Gilbert told him to do that as a way of recognizing him.
Those best moments with Gilbert are in the second half of the short. The first half has funny moments too. I especially like the gag with the air conditioner. I do agree, though, that it is somewhat of a strange setup; the whole idea of them looking at the house in the first place seems a little forced, especially since there doesn’t really seem to be a reason the wife should want the house in the first place. Most of the supporting cast is fine, but this is mostly Langdon and Gilbert’s spotlight, and both take advantage of it. I enjoyed it, even though I do agree certain parts of it are a bit too strange.
