I wish I could be more positive about this episode. It had a nice creepy vibe going for it with that eerie Dr. Munigant (Peter Blais), and it wasn't easy to predict where the story was going. But the payoff for this one was just too silly to take seriously, and felt like a cop out in place of something that could have been more sinister. Considering what a hypochondriac Bert Harris (Eugene Levy) was, I had to second his wife Clarisse's (Diane D'Aquila) remark about how ironic it was that they got married. Ironic too, how the actor portraying the fat man at the bar went by the name of Thick Wilson - how appropriate! He had a pretty good spin on his condition when he referred to his bulging stomach as an epidural buffer. Just think what he would have looked like if Munigant extracted HIS bones!
