Bar scene[[edit source]]
To be clear on the scene we see with Bill and Heather in the bar...does that actually happen? It comes up several times in the episode, but I don't know if that's just Bill's fantasy, or some potential future, or if that's actually a flashback. Something which happens between scenes in this episode? I'm a bit unclear on this point. Maybe someone can clear it up.
