Hey guys. Long time listener, first time caller. Wanted to say that after reading Peter's lead-in, I think I was almost expecting a face-melting experience similar to when they opened the Ark of the Covenant. With that said, I do think it was a very clever (and original) scene and I'm sure if I were able to see the full scene in the context of the entire film it would probably have even more of an effect (as Peter alluded).

It sort of reminds me of a chapter from the Chuck Klosterman book "Downtown Owl" involving nothing more than a conversation between a guy & a girl at a bar. What makes it great IMO is how the conversation is presented. Each character's dialogue is written first as "What he/she said" then is followed with "What he/she meant." I had never seen that done and thought it was an interesting viewpoint of the unspoken awkwardness in social situations, akin to this scene from "500 Days."

Anyway, just wanted to say I enjoy the show, and I'll hang up and listen.
