I think part of the reason I like Kowalski so much is that he reminds me of Rick Blaine. That bit in "Burning Down the House" about sticking your neck out?
MAN: When they come to get me, Rick, I hope you'll be more of a help. RICK: I stick my neck out for nobody.
Well, nice try, but you both stick your necks out every single chance you get. Plus, the hang up on the Girl That Got Away - which, okay, is far from unusual. Fraser has it too for awhile. (And I'd take Claude Rains over Ingrid Bergman any day.) But television that makes me think of Casablanca is good television, I figure.
