At the end of this episode, when Julia was alone in the mausoleum after Sarah abandoned her, I started thinking about the medieval morality play Everyman, which was performed at my highschool (back before the flood) by the Medieval History class. Everyman is looking for somebody to accompany him in death, and goes asking (at this point I admit I used the internet to refresh my memory) Fellowship, Kindred, Cousins, Worldly Goods, and Knowledge if they'll go with him. Each in turn refuses. I remember being very disappointed when Knowledge refused. (SPOILER - there was a happy ending. Good-Deeds said yes.) And here we have, in this episode, Julia facing possible death, and looking around for someone to help her, and at the end, she's all alone, having been reminded by Sarah of her Bad Deed. Of course, it isn't exactly the same as Everyman. Julia wasn't exactly asking Maggie to help her with her problem; she was just looking for Sarah's doll. But Julia's unhappiness causes Maggie to have kindly feelings for Dr. Hoffman for the first time - and so, through her suffering, Julia is redeemed. Golly gee, this episode has Christianity coming out its ears!
I noticed a diploma on the wall of Tony Peterson's office today, near the arched doorway. What a relief to know that he graduated from something!
