I liked it. What better way to remind you it's a television show than to make people think their cable went out. It also reminded me of the ending of Hitchcock's The Birds. And it played on what people were expecting. The guy goes in the bathroom like Al Pacino in the Godfather you think maybe he'll come out blasting. Meanwhile Meadow is outside trying multiple times to park the car, extending the tension. And for a show that has always made such great use of music to end with a Journey song is funny.
