Actually...I have the scripts to all 3 of these episodes, and it is really #3 that comes off as
heartbreaking. #2 is basically a flashback episode in which Niles as a child is at the hospital.
Daphne gets some dramatic and sad moments, but part #3 is unforgettable, dramatic and
groundbreaking TV.

That is something that callmetootie wrote a couple of threads ago. Now that all three episodes have aired, I don't mind telling you that you were 100% WRONG. What happened, I thought you read all 3 scripts. Either you confused the scripts or you lied. Which is it???

P.S.,
I doubt you confused the scripts because you said the 2nd ep. would be a flashback episode.
