[QUOTE="Oh!Carol Christmasson, post: 409549, member: 8"] A very intriguing story and I constantly wondered where the story would take me. Jason Watkins steals the episode as the cheap friend, and once it's revealed what it's all about he also becomes the most sinister character. What I love about this episode is that the revenge story is as convoluted as the riddles. Now, I don't know much about solving riddles (it usually makes me feel very frustrated) let alone how to do it in English language, but I'm not quite sure if the explanations as given by the professor is based on reality. The way I see it, it takes an [I]awful lot[/I] of imagination to solve his crossword puzzles. And sometimes I thought, is that really [I]one[/I] word? Perhaps it was meant to be ridiculous, perhaps it wasn't. If I knew I may have liked the episode even better. The only thing that could have saved this story is if all or most characters were brutally murdered. As a punishment for being in a karaoke episode. Even the songs used in a narrative way (Don't You Want Me Baby / I Know Him So Well) doesn't look very interesting, mostly because none of the characters are any fun. On the upside, it made me re-discover Wham Rap. The twist was surprising, I thought the shoe was a metaphor for his life as discarded houseman. I liked the insanity of the obsession, the website, the interrogation when somebody claims the shoe. When he told his wife that they (the twins) "belong together" I thought he had killed his daughter. A terrific whodunit with fun characters, but I didn't understand the ending. He was/wasn't killed or was he possessed by the spirit of the dead artist? I have no idea. [/QUOTE]
