Great, GREAT episode! The hug was an especially nice touch. :)

Oh, and the Star Trek joke was awesome!

I remember sitting at my desk proofreading the shooting script before we sent it to the network and getting to the page where you get the description of what bad men put on their island lairs followed by the Star Trek joke, followed by the Middlesub DSV (naturally, a reference to an obscure cancelled TV series).

Javi was walking by my desk and I just looked up from the page and said, "I love you."

He was amused.

I somehow missed the mention of Noser's roommate's name. What was it?

Relatedly, I noticed during the end credits Jake Smollett was saying what music was used in the episode. I thought it would have been funny if after each title, he said, "Yeah, I know that." "I know that one too." Etc.

Heh, that would have been a good joke.

His roommate's name is Anvil, which (geek alert!) was the name of the cleric in a long running D&D campaign I was in for many years, and that many on my friends list are familiar with.

That gets a thumbs up from me. Nerd pride!
