"Annotations: NXE 3:2"
 
   [8] This title is, of course, a bit of a pun; it's taken from the title of the famous O. Henry Christmas story.

[79] And, of course, he has; this is Lucifer.

[229] Exodus 2:7.

[823] One of my favorite exchanges in the entire series.

As an aside, it amazed me when this came out how many people assumed this scene was something else entirely. I mean, yes, the build-up to it was designed to lead folks up the garden path, as it were - but it surprised all of us on the crew how many people then chose to stay in the garden, even though the exit was clearly marked.

For the record, yes, it really is a game of Scrabble. The love the previous passage talks about? Not necessarily that kind. Or at least not necessarily acted on that way. In a lot of ways, this episode is about DJ finding balance in his life and sorting out what these people mean to him - the previous scene with Rei involves much the same thing - and though his heart, as he once said, is indiscriminate, the same cannot necessarily be said of other parts.

[842] Overexposed, perhaps, but too appropriate not to use.

[879] "God's in His Heaven, all's right with the world." Rather a strange slogan for a global defense agency, but hey, I didn't pick it.

[1095] Truss got five bonus points for busting out this excellent word.
