Agreed. While it lacked most of the in-depth story I could have hoped for, it *did* set the stage for potential story-lines next season quite well. Yes, the special's story unfolded oh-so-predictably, but the dialogue was very well written. And (the part before the preview for next season) the last three minutes or so were incredibly sad, I felt. All in all, an enjoyable view - as long as you don't expect Shakespeare
