Heavy episode. This was an extraordinary piece of work--writing, directing, acting, filming, everything. It all clicked. Good flashbacks, good cutting, good use of effects. Brings the viewer along into Harry's realizations, and explains the characters' motivations more clearly than before. Much more emotional than some of the other episodes, more personal, and so, more intense, more frightening, more exciting. It wasn't maudlin; it was just genuinely moving.
Bob's a ghost but has needs, too, and goes to surprising lengths here. Great twist toward the end. Dresden and Murphy finally talk about their push-pull situation. The characters are suddenly much fuller.
There's probably no way the original actors could be brought back for something like this series, but it would be great if somehow a group of actors with similar chemistry could be brought together for a full-length movie. Maybe with Matthew Knight (Harry as a boy) in a few years? This kind of chemistry, with several people involved in a complicated story, is a really, really tough thing to pull together out of the blue, though--and the story just got a whole lot more complex with this episode. It's amazing how much information and development were successfully crammed into just this one episode. The events shown here are the keys to what made the characters work together.
Oh--if you didn't know, the title of this episode was taken from a Frank Oz comedy of the same name, with Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss. See that, too.
