At one point, Pamela says, "I'm sick of being hauled back into your angel/demon, Soc/Greaser crap." This is a reference to S.E. Hinton's 1967 novel The Outsiders. The book's plot centers on two rival groups of teenagers, the Socials (Socs) and the Greasers, who come from opposite sides of the tracks.

Awesome epi and glad we were right that Bobby has NOT left us!

I'm keeping this post (mostly) spoiler free for those who don't get the epi until later but just have to say: The guy who plays Alistairs new "meat suit"
(Christopher Heyerdahl) is freakin' awesome! Now THAT'S an actor who did his homework! Accent, mannerisms, mode of speech, even got the voice
as close to perfect as possible. Excellent job!
