I defend Ben against charges that he is the new host for BOB.
I see his current condition as a natural and somewhat healthy
response to shock. He is returning to his roots in childhood.
But this episode shows that there is definitely a negative side
to this 'mental breakthrough' as he seems to be developing a touch
of megalomania (ego-inflation) to balance the recent humiliations
he has suffered.
