Now we get a quick scene at the hospital, where Nate comes to visit me, uh, I mean, Aaron. Like most people, Nate has obviously realized that there's no surer way to feel better about yourself than spending a few minutes observing my life. Hell, that'd cheer up anybody. I do look pretty peaceful sleeping there in the bed, though. Nate sinks into a chair and thinks about the sad state of his life until his cell phone rings. It's David, and he's got a bombshell of his own: Kroehner has gone bankrupt, and is also the target of a federal investigation. I can only assume this plot point will play a larger role in next week's finale, although the way they dropped Gilardi doesn't give me a lot of hope. Oh, hell. What am I talking about? He's sitting in AARON'S room, for God's sake. This is obviously the greatest show on television, and everything they touch is sure to turn to gold.
Unless it's Keith doing the touching, of course. He calls David from work to explain that he'll be home late that night, but it's not until after he hangs up that we get an explanation. A few more cops come into the room, and Keith sits down with yet another review board to examine his angry actions. I wonder how he and Said would get along?
And finally, Ruth comes to visit Lisa and the baby. Lisa has once again managed to find herself some ridiculously oversized accommodations, and if I'd only known that vegan cooking was so lucrative, I never would have gone into recapping. This scene is totally silent, except for the music, and Ruth sits in a rocking chair cradling her granddaughter's giant, oversized noggin. If that doesn't answer the questions about whether or not the baby is Nate's, I don't know what will. I guess if she starts growing fur or something, but that's about it. And if nothing else, Farscape fans can always take delight in calling the kid Maya the Leviathan, so really, everyone wins in the end. And speaking of the end, it's time to fade to white. I'll see you all back here for the finale, okay?
Aaron: Great episode, dude. That rocked!
Alan Ball: Aww, thanks. So what are you going to do with your week off?
Aaron: I don't know. I keep hearing great things about this "outside" place that all the kids are going these days.
Alan Ball: Nah, you don't want to do that. There's like, bugs, and shit out there.
Aaron: Good point. Pass the bong, would you?
Alan Ball: Here.
Aaron: [Flick. Gurgle.] Ahhhhhh. This is kind of fun, though.
