People have just discovered that ‘Wonder Woman‘ director Patty Jenkins was also behind the infamous ‘mayonegg‘ episode of ‘Arrested Development‘, and are – as they say – shook.
If you haven’t seen the season two episode in question (what, like you had other things to do?), refresh yourself below.
Twitter user Jesse McLaren pointed out the timely connection.

The episode in question is, shockingly, *not* called ‘The One With The Mayonegg‘. It’s actually ‘The One Where They Build a House‘, and is the only episode directed by Jenkins.
Loved working on this show. My favorite. @arresteddev @MitchHurwitz https://t.co/aGL6oBZGi8

So there you have it. The second film director in history to make a movie with a budget in excess of US $100M also made an absolute banger of a cult classic. The more you know.
