Greetings, all.

Something that's been bugging me about the remake is the explosion in
his apartment in real life. For what end does this happen? Lucy may or
may not be dead as a result (although I've read that the fire chief
does say no one was in the apartment at the time, I need to rewatch
the episode to verify this).

There's really a bazillion different ways this could go given the
extremes of manipulations being performed by Summakor, but the main
problem is that Michael doesn't confront Curtis about it once he sees
him. Surely there is *some* connection, even if Lucy was simply
paranoid suicidal and decided to escape Summakor's "grasp" by killing
herself, that could have been expressed. Even if it was some random
accident, and not a strange assassination attempt, something about
Lucy should have been said, but wasn't.

And to the main point, what does his house blowing up have to do with
where the show takes him? It's shockingly arbitrary, so I can only
think that I'm missing something major, and I suspect it has something
to do with Lucy not actually being real, but that conflicts with 2
telling 11-12 that Village souls can't travel to the Other World.

Seriously... why is the explosion in the series?

Perhaps it would help if your subject and/or body actually named the
show you were talking about?

Gee, never occurred to you to look at the groups it was sent to?

You have an attitude problem. Get it adjusted by a competent mechanic
before posting again.

That wasn't a flame. Simple statement of fact.
