Once again, copying over my old recap...

I loved the whole deal with the fireflies, and Ned's experiments. There was something very magical about it, of course. It sort of made me think of Hogwarts


And then.... *le swoony sigh* Can we all gush collectively?


And then the wonder of Raul Esparza as Alfredo!!

The scene where we first meet him though, I noticed something upon watching the episode, no doubt helped from having seen a picture of him made up as such, but if you look in the background, first we see Paul Reubens as Alfredo...


And then the next shot, there's Raul...


Love Emerson's entrance, and his "I feel like ice cream"

This exchange is golden:

Olive: Musing on the idea of setting someone on fire doesn’t mean you really want to set them on fire: it’s just the thought of it makes you really happy. But only for a second, then you feel bad, but then that second would feel like a lot of fun.
Emerson: You thinkin’ of settin’ someone on fire?
Olive: No, I was just speaking in the figurative, but figuratively speaking, someone should set you on fire for throwing my heart under a bus when you told me Ned didn’t want me.
Emerson: That was the Truth Bus.
Olive: That wasn’t the Truth Bus: that was the Bitchy Crosstown Express.
Emerson: By "bitchy," you mean "frank" and "honest."
Olive: If I want Frank and Honest – well, I don’t want Frank and Honest. I never want Frank and Honest, so let’s just take it off the docket. While we’re on the subject of Frank and Honest, I don’t like that girl. Not one bit.


The coroner... love that man... first with the bit about moisturizer, and then the hint of hurt when he sees that Emerson didn't come just to see him

A little nitpick - They say Lawrence Schatz was "44 years, 17 months..." Wouldn't that just make him 45 years, 5 months...?

Looove this, mostly because of the last line...

Chuck: You won’t even know I’m here.
Emerson: ‘Cause you leaving?
Chuck: No.
Ned: C’mon, it makes her happy.


Ned's look after telling Chuck he 'killed' Lawrence... poor puppy!

Accidental, involuntary manslaughter...

Chuck's red dress... awesome


The mermaid tail bags... that is just such a touch I love!


The whole segment after Chuck shuts the coffin and they try to pry it open... Emerson, omg... From "oh hell no!" to his run, kissing his crossed fingers...

The image of Chuck sitting there in the red dress... so pretty...


Love Olive going to the door to the aunts', scared, then her dash, holding herself... SOS! OS! OS!


Then the whole scene with Olive and the aunts...

Pooooh! That is awesome And of course, "Kick Pooh Kick"


Ned, wanting to be a Jedi And then his standing there below, all prince charming for Chuck *gushes*

Lastly, the scene with the wrapping of the heirlooms for return... there's something so sweet about it, them sitting there in their PJs... like Christmas!

And... I’m going to see if I’ve got some plastic wrap.
