Thanks for telling me Fimber.

That sounds like a good theory ReganX, I just wish that the show had taken the time to clarify some of this stuff. I'm not going to say that they should have taken out the comedy to explain what happened in this episode, for the selfish reason that I liked the humor, but I'm surprised that out of 5 seasons they never bother telling us what is going on here.

I know that they probably didn't want to go too much into politics, because that can get confusing. This is a family show, so they might have been thinking of kids. But if the kids noticed the shows inconsistencies wouldn't they be as confused as we are? How hard could it have been to put a couple of lines of exposition, especially for something this important?

I did like that we got an Arthur/Gwen episode. Even if I'm not the biggest fan of the plot devices used. Angel is fantastic, but her character is always pushed to the side. I never got as attached to the Gwen character because we just didn't see her often enough, and when we do, the only reason she is there is for ship pushing. Which is a pity, I found her to be a likable, intelligent, person. And Angel is truly talented, her expressions are great.
