Where it came from, in part, was oddly enough, a theatrical
exercise.
There's a thing you do in theater training where you're told to talk
about a subject, never use the word "I" ...but in the end wind up telling
us more about *you* than the subject you're speaking about. So I began
to wonder if I could apply this exercise, in a limited way, to an episode
of the show. I can't say more than that without spoiling things, but
suffice to say you learn a lot about all kinds of people, and the way you
learn it says a lot about those involved. It's a *very* subversive and
tricky episode, and I *very* much suggest taping it, so you can go back
and check something out later. You'll know what. If you don't, you'll
kick yourself later.
