None of this blew my mind, but it was a nice exploration of these topics with video from the various shows. I liked the section on gifts and restaurants, in particular. This guy asks many of the same questions Gothic did when he arrived in this universe. And there are no easy answers to these questions.

I think I have added a bit more depth to these issues with my own unique contributions, by taking throwaway lines and trying to extrapolate.
