Notes: VERSION DIFFERENCE: Both the radio and album version of this episode have a scene with Malachi and Whit at the end. However, the album version's scene is much longer, with the whole series being tied up much better. Whit asks Malachi's purpose for his visit, says that he is tired, and asks for inspiration. Malachi informs him that the angels in the Imagination Station are all wrong. Then suddenly, Malachi apparently disappears and Whit has no memory of him. He only has a new idea for an invention (evidently the Transmuter) and knows he needs to change the Imagination Station. Additionally there are scenes added in the middle of this episode where Margaret asks Tom to consider changing "prayer" to "meditation" and where Eugene flashes back to Katrina asking him to be more aggressive. |

Notes: PARENTAL WARNING: Children under ten should listen with their parents. It contains some violence at the Coliseum in Rome. VERSION DIFFERENCE: The album version does not include the parental warning that aired before the broadcast version. GOOF ALERT: At the Colosseum scene toward the end of this episode, the crowd supposedly gives the gladiators "thumbs up" as the "let him live" sign and the "thumbs down" as the "kill him" sign. However, this is historically inaccurate. According to Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, "In the ancient Roman combats, when a gladiator was vanquished it rested with the spectators to decide whether he should be slain or not. If they wished him to live, they shut up their thumbs in their fists; if to be slain they turned out their thumbs." |
