After Walter makes the decision to \"push the Chinaman button\", he confronts Mr. Thompson (Phil) at his hotel room. Upon the encounter, Walter suddenly allows his evil greedy side to come out when he whacks Phil with the poker, killing him instantly. Three seconds later, Walter has Phil\'s body in the shower with water running and he exclaims, \"What a shame that you slipped in the tub Mr. Thompson, what a terrible shame! Now I have to go home...to wait for the mailman.\"

Can we just assume that Mr. Thompson (Phil) had greeted Walter already dressed in his birthday suit? Or is it considered common for someone from that neck of the woods to accidently slip in the bathtub fully clothed?

I know it may seem petty but the ending never suggested that Walter took the time to undress him after he tossed the body in the tub. No, it seemed just quite the opposite, based on Walter\'s last words in the final sentence*.

I loved the irony in how Walter told Phil how before he had always felt so stupid all of his life, a coward, a weakling. And now, thanks to Mr. Thompson, he now felt like a giant. He never felt better even though he was an accessory to murder. He told Mr. Thompson that he never thought murder could be so easy.

What a wonderful way for Walter to turn the table on good ol\' Phil... :twisted:

Editor\'s note: Had to edit this once I listened to the ending again. Somehow I missed the part of Mr. Thompson[/i:fb9d3dd557] telling Walter when he greeted him at the door, \"As you can see, I\'m just about to take a shower\". Can\'t believe I missed that part during the first preview. Can I change my vote to a 5 out of 5?<br>
