There were no brothers, just my lame joke. The Mills Brothers and Up a Lazy River occurred to me as soon as I realized Abbie's last name was Mills. The calmness of the song compared to the franticness of the show seemed like they fit together well. Plus the dream in the song and the dreams in the episode.
The car dealer looked like he could possibly be Native American. The ancient spirit (what I'd call anything that pops in and out of reality), looked like an Anglo.
Lef-tenant is just one of my pet peeves. I always feel like it's a bit disrespectful to call a British officer 'loo-tenant' or an American one 'lef-tenant.' I'd certainly give plenty of leeway for first meetings and so on. But after a few weeks it's time to start acting like 21st century American or British natives when addressing people. Other word differences feel far less bothersome to me.
