For the record, I liked it bunches and bunches. And coming from someone who has never had much use for the Dorfs, that's saying something. :-)

It was quintessentially an LNH story-- goofy characters, jokes (both clever and terrible [but good-terrible]), pop culture references, and at its core, something sad and serious and a little mysterious.

FYI, Painful Pun Person is now my favorite character.

Y'all did a great thing here.
