As I said, this is similar to "Time and again" in that:

- It's written by Ian Martin.
- He plays a kindly, befuddled, "house call" type of doctor in each.
- There are bloodsuckers at work.
- These vampires are also WORKING (intentionally or not) for someone.
- The man we come to view as a protagonist has bad things happen within his family.
- In each play, he decides to take a similar course of action.

Three things:

- This reunites the "Girl talk" team of Teri Keane and Robert Dryden. I think this was one of Dryden's best performances for the RMT.
- The best line in the play occurs on their "honeymoon" night after he (in the voice he used as a college "revolutionary" says he'll treat his new bride's plant with "kid gloves"): "The only gloves I wanted to use on "heebie-jeebie" or whatever were 8 oz. ones." Classic.
- At that same moment, there's a music bed that I can't determine the origin of. It sounds like some kind of percussive string instrument, accompanied by flutes and run through an echo chamber. I listened to this last year, at my wife's store, with my back to a darkened storeroom. I defy anyone to listen intently to that music bed and not get some type of shivers the first time you hear it. (On any other episode it would have been overused, but this one it works perfectly.)

Enjoy, ya'll.
