      ADD ALLUSIONS

      • The allusion in the title of this episode is to a movie by the same title which starred Elliot Gould. "The Long Goodbye" holds up a mirror to the culture of the Hollywood lifestyle in the 1970s. The film is "a study of a moral and decent man cast adrift in a selfish, self-obsessed society where lives can be thrown away without a backward glance...and any notions of friendship and loyalty are meaningless."
