This episode also displays a recurring theme for Fraser (not to mention Gross' Geoffrey Tennant character in SLINGS & ARROWS): respect for "mad" folks. Fraser solves this case because he's willing to listen to the truth the inmates know and speak -- that a precipitous ledge is the dangerous "blue room" where the psychiatrists experiment on non-con captive subjects.
In the pilot, Fraser attends to and believes the panhandler, who rewards that respect by repaying the money Fraser lends him. Everyone except Fraser dismisses the "unhinged" chess-playing secret agent in Spy vs Spy.

Just one of the reasons I love this show.
