Well, first off, this episode is CLASSIC. One of my utter favourites. It just has such a great jumping off point for a series - a woman commiting suicide - it just hooks you in with the very first scene and leaves you with one question on your lips, "Why?". Not to mention that this episode is the perfect blend of comedy and drama, it manages to switch from a woman mowing the lawn in an evening gown to a man taking a pickaxe to a mysterious pool with almost no explanation, and it manages to turn a woman burning a house down into a great piece of romantic history, I applaud, it just allows you to sit back and enjopy the ride. And the best thing about it is, it always leaves you wanting more, whether ot be explanation or they're comedic antics. Great episode and great cliffhangers, it keeps the viewers hooked for the next year or so, Mike's gun, that note - well done Marc Cherry, a truly teriffic pilot.
