Boyle gestured at the table and his eyes got really big like that time he'd been taking mime lessons. "Jake, you spilled salt. You can't just let it sit there. It's bad luck." "Whatever, Bad Luck Boyle. I do what I want," Jake said. This is hilarious, and sounds like it could totally have happened on the show.

Costis has been captured by the Mede, but Gen has a plan to get him back. Hijinks, as usual, ensue. Oh, poor Costis, always one step behind. This did a great job of evoking the books, even though here the Mede are faux-Roman rather than faux-Persian.

Mac gives Dot The Talk before her wedding night. Oh, this gets the voices down perfectly.
