Before I saw this episode again, I remembered not liking it. I remember it being ham handed and blunt, but watching it again, I kind of liked it, though it made me dislike the doctor more than I did before (the character, not the actor). It bugged me because I could not put my finger on why though. It has been pointed out by others, Pinky and James K, why. I think my favorite part of this episode was the parents shopping around for help. Earlier in the show they are very arrogant about non-believers and their own superiority because of their beliefs. Then they are deflated time and time again. They find out they are only superior in their own minds and the rest of the universe does not give a damn about them.

And I have to comment on the lack of facial responses, again, from Sinclair. There were more sorrowful faces though this entire episode. Just his normal dull scowl.

I remember going to a movie and they had a martial arts demonstration before it started instead of the pre-previews.
