This episode was incredibly so-so, but I vaguely recall thinking Richie wasn't too bad in it (and I never liked Richie in much of anything), and of course we have the reoccuring actor theme starting up with the baddie being the same actor who played the villain in "Little Tin God" - a much better episode.

I do wonder how much of a headache getting shot in the head, and then recovering, give you. Ouch.

I've always wondered about the 'getting shot in the head' thing too. I mean, there was no blood there - no splattered brains. And he seemed to revive really fast.

The fanfiction I've read where there was at least some question of survival and mental recuperation seemed much more believable.
