Are you sure you aren't watching thes ep's, DL? You give very good accounts of them. Is this all from old viewing notes? I've been throwing mine away as I finish commenting... maybe I shouldn't.
This episode is infamous to me, for incoherent writing, especially the voiceover, which was laughable to me and which I quoted verbatim last time around. At least I do remember quoting it somewhere, though I now realize I didn't join the WP until Leviathans.
Many so-bad-they're-good Jeff moments. He gets to register shock in a unique way, by grasping his temples in both hands, opening his eyes as widely as humanly possible without ocular injury. I wouldn't have been surprised if we'd heard a director shouting "MORE FEAR!!! EMOTE, DAMN IT!!!" from offstage. (Futurama reference sort of) I guess the head-grasping is what fans think of as hair-touching.
Jeff's funniest moment was when he'd just been fired by Barnabas, and on his way to the stairs to leave, he picks up a little blue pillow meant for Eve's head, realizes this was pointless, discards the pillow, and leaves...
Did Willie try to stab Eve in this one? I thought I'd failed to note a new ep starting and put that under #583.
