( 'Er ... in Splintz they die if you put a coin in their mouth and cut their head off ...' 'Not like ordinary people, then,' said Nanny, taking out a notebook. 'Er ... in Klotz they die if you stick a lemon in their mouth - ' 'Sounds more like it.' '- after you cut their head off. I believe that in Glitz you have to fill their mouth with salt, hammer a carrot in both ears, and then cut off their head.' 'I can see it must have been fun finding that out.' )

Awesome episode meta. I love how you have pointed out things that i had never even considered or thought of before. I look forward to reading more episode reviews/meta. Thank you.

I know you probably didn't intend that to be funny, but I laughed out loud because it's so true. I hadn't realized it until you pointed it out.

I see the humour. I spend most of the episode just boggling at John, because I don't think he has any idea how he sounds. :)

I mean Sam ends up following in John's footsteps with a revenge quest of his own and he vocalizes understanding John more afterwards in The Song Remains the Same but it's always nice to see the similarities in the little details.

Thanks. I enjoy the knack they sometimes have of creating character parallels with little references and similar imagery. When it works it's very clever. And the bit in My Bloody Valentine is just this ... nugget of pure horror that stunned me the first time I saw it, because it makes John and Mary's story so much darker.
