I got the impression that perhaps Albert wasn't originally in this episode.
Maybe his character was originally Gordon Cole but Lynch was unavailable
(or piqued that the script was soooo bad). It did seem to be a rushed,
hurry-up-and-get-it-over-with, disappointing type of story. I thought
first it was cleverly set up with the water sprinklers alluded to from
the first episode (after the pilot), but there are far too many holes!

Leland/the dwarf dancing: but far closer is the dancing done by Audrey!
Water sprinkler driving out the devil BOB: as if he could keep otherwise
keep dry in the Pacific Northwest!
Gum back into style: we had never seen Leland chew gum before, it always
seemed to be Ben who masticated compulsively.


Ah, well, any thoughts on what triggered the fire alarm/sprinklers?? I see
three candidates:
1) Dick with his long cigarette holder
2) BOB with his FIRE WALK WITH ME
3) Albert lighting up in the hallway with a great big "NO SMOKING" sign
on the wall (was he ever seen smoking before?)

Also remember that the fire alarm in the hospital went off when Leland
(or was it BOB?) snuffed out Jacques.
