Well, there was an train in the episode, so you can blame the original writer. |
Or not. It seems to occur more frequently for me when reading fivers that are particularly dense with references and allusions, as both yours and Nic's tend to be -- the brain seems to be reaching for "just that one more". |
There were a few lines from the Temptest that seem to have gotten cut for brevity/awkwardness. When the holodeck shut off at the end of the episode, someone said "Awww, our revels now have ended".

(It's happened more than a couple of times with Derek's, as well -- in one case, way more than "just one more".)

I remember that.

This should not be taken, however, as a suggestion that you should stop doing that sort of thing -- I happen to enjoy it ... a lot. :D

I enjoy doing it, too. The more obscure, the better.
