I'm with the consensus on this. I think the Kessler's were trying to pull off the something similar to what happened in a few episodes of "The Sopranos" with various dream sequences. In this case it was done virtually the entire episode so we had no idea of where imagination ends and reality begins. Season 3 had started making a good comeback about halfway through with the frame job on Eric and the subsequent efforts of the Rayburn family to cover their tracks, only to find out they keep digging themselves into a deeper hole. So they next to last episode could have been setting the stage for a dramatic finale-except we got an hour of virtual nonsense. Not sure of what to believe in this series, I'll check out the finale cause I've been with it this long. Maybe Sissy Spacek walks into the bathroom to find Sam Shepard in the shower and it's all been a dream, ala 1980's "Dallas"
