@drdarke:disqus Actually, they've been planning this episode as the series finale since season 1. They whipped it out because they were getting the vibe that there wasn't going to be a season 6 and wanted to make sure they'd at least have the opportunity to use it.

For me, the point where I started seriously thinking "I don't think there's going to be a season six" was the D.B. Cooper episode. I mean, the Spruce Goose, that's just a fun piece of modern American history to play with. But solving one of the all time great unsolvable crimes? That was a bit much.
