I'm getting real Back To the Future flashbacks here with the train. I really do hope that we'll be following the path of LN a little further, no matter how many haters he has...

Also, the expression on Ray's face at the end - priceless.

Ray is so happy. Best Wedding Ever.

Was Teodore frazzled like that all day or did he manage to do the full circle, enjoy the party and come back to being all messed up because he's still cleaning up at 4:30 in the morning?

He has that expression of pure bliss on his face.

Right now, I have what Jeph Jaques calls "the sleep madness", same as Teodor here. Today, I didn't get any sleep all night, and I felt like Teodor, and then at 4 PM I did sleep, and I woke up at 8 PM feeling like Ray. In fact, I'm going to bed right now, after I check out Overcompensating and Wigu. It is 3 AM in the morning, and I have been watching Catherine Tate clips on YouTube and skimming through my Ian Fleming novels.

I have been know to suffer the sleep madness from time to time myself - including the past couple of nights.

The hot, humid weather which has blanketed London of late has made me twist and turn, yearning for sleep, yet constantly seeing it just ahead of my heavy lidded eyes.

In truth, it is only the knowledge that at 5:30 I must awake again which has let me force myself to sleep. That and a few pops of blessed melatonin, without which my sleep would ever be worse.

I wish that I awoke at more sane hour, so that I could indulge the madness from time to time. There are days when I long to embrace the inability to sleep, and to instead watch late night tv while sipping on a cold glass of limoncello. Such simple pleasures denied.

I guess it hasn't sunk in with Teodor that the wedding was a huge success and his failure was totally covered by Molly's brothers.  Ray was completely fooled and basically Teodor is wealthy now.  Wasn't he paid like an outrageous amount of money to put the thing on?

Remember the train to the afterlife in Final Fantasy III ?

I guess bad or just unpleasant things happening to Teodore is the new bad things happening to Phillipe or Beef.  I predict he'll be the next to get a major growth-of-character arc.  But it'll be a while.

LN is going to have to fight Siegfried then use Revivify on the engine?

The way LN is already dressed up like the others ... how many other of Iorweth's "sons" joined the family this way?

Raymond Smuckles turned the knob on the Penfield Mood Organ by his bedside until it came to the number equivalent to "well-deserved rest"... activated the device... and laid down to dream.

Also, he was very drunk on champagne to begin with.

This helped.

You know, on several levels...Achwood is actually pretty goddamn strange.

Ghost trains and purple pumps. Just sorta hit me all of a sudden.
