You point out the following, what happens when a patient asks Fraser has gone, and the reply is "north by northwest." Of course he has! He's always seen as the "mad one." (No wonder he needs a compass.) And I hadn't remembered that it was also Victoria's favourite movie.
It makes me wonder now if that's one reason they picked the title "due South." Perhaps on a deep level the show is not just about a character who heads South from Canada, but a character who turns from "north by north west" to a more southerly direction.
Or perhaps I'm just too obsessed...
And yes, you're right... it would be interesting to see from Bob's point of view, what happened on the morning he woke up to discover his neglected child.
