   In British spelling, 'licence' is a noun and 'license' is a verb. Americans   
   usually use 'license' for both parts of speech. I use the British spelling   
   because I'm culturally sophisticated.

   I don't know if I'd call it 'great'. It was solid. Almost unique in the way   
   it was like a stand-alone, but then, all of a sudden, there's this alien DNA   
   stuff and Deep Throat's assassin is back and we're tied into the mytharc.   
   But it doesn't really move the story forward at all; it's kind of like just   
   a little sideplot branching off the main mytharc. I'm tempted to call it the   
   only 'stand-alone mytharc' episode.   
      
   I've heard that it lost a little bit of something because it was originally   
   supposed to be some kind of crossover with 'Picket Fences', and there was   
   supposed to be stuff on that show that fleshed it out. It does sort of just   
   trail off and dangle at the end, but that's not too terrible a thing -- it's   
   actually rather appropriate, and adds to the creepiness factor.

   Actually, I'm not sure *how* you spell it.
