[I have a life?] and here are my thoughts: I whole heartedly agree with the addiction theme, remember that the old lady said to Donna, "I don't eat creamed corn". probably a reference to the fact that she did not partake in the substance. No, she says: ``Do you see creamed corn on this plate? I ordered no creamed corn.'' This leaves open whether she ever partakes of creamed corn. By the way, can anybody make out exactly who is eating the creamed corn at the end there? The close up was so tight, I couldn't tell. The white horse means someone is drugged, not death. It could also mean that Leland is going into his BoB phase, since both times we saw it: (1) Leland had drugged Sarah; (2) so he could become BoB and abuse/attack Laura/Maddy. Now ... Here's the big one... I think Bob, Mike's familiar (owl) turned on Mike. This is when Mike realized the errors of his ways and cut off his arm (LMFAP). He physically cut off his arm as a symbol of his turning, so he could be sure that he would never revert back to his old ways. See, LMFAP seems to posess ARMS. The arm goes dead, remember? More importantly, at least in the case of Teresa Banks, it's the LEFT arm, which is the one Mike is missing, which would be the arm that the LMFAP is. (Remember, he stands where Mike's left arm would be when they are together in the Waiting Room/BlWhiteack Lodge. (I don't remember if the arms that trembled in the series were left or right arms, though.) -30- Bob
