I think he was, to get back at Guber for what he said during the trial.  
God, that was the funniest thing I have seen in a very long time on any show.

Yes, and I feel so empty inside.

Poor Jeremy. Never again to have his pinworms picked by Mother’s loving hand.

I’m fairly busy this week, but I taped it and watched it over the last couple days. It was…interesting.

The funeral was just…odd. Did you notice it wasn’t just a shoebox or something like that? No. It was a COFFIN. A real, wooden coffin. Only hand-size.

I found the Louisa Subplot to be kind of boring too, maybe just an excuse for the music montage. Let’s hope it was a one-time thing.

Also, about the rave scene: This show has some of the best cinematography around.

Bleh. When he said that, I just about threw up…
