- Given that it ends with the revelation that both Billy and Billie have died, I guess this counts as the series finale. That term (finale) is deliberately absent from the episode and its plot outline so as not to dull the story impact, I again guess.
- The episode is told in the form of interviews with the people present in the lives of the two, given in static single camera close up talks. Without the benefits of the time or budget found in a full second season, the results have a feel like ripping out the final acts of a play and adding as epilogue: So, Romeo's dead and so's Juliette, and we're all super bummed.
- As received, this gives just enough to offer an academic "Oh, that happened" resolution and not a visceral level of closure needed for romance or drama.
