PMC After Dark

Okay, I had that slightly wrong.

Apparently there was a dispute between the writers and they couldn't decide between "the seventh Friend comes back from the dead", "it's a bad ending where the Friends all die", or just ignoring it with "the battle still rages on to this day".

So each of the writer factions wrote a separate script and the episode wound up being assembled from completely different scenes from each of the scripts.

What's especially strange about this is that none of the scenes in question involve any of the main characters, so it comes across as a bunch of secondary characters from other episodes talking about the final battle and what the result means, without showing any part of the battle or describing who won. Consequently, the episode is surprisingly cohesive and was widely praised by critics for its unconventional narrative.

However, when I watched it I didn't get any of the jokes.
