Didja Notice?
The character of Shaw is probably named for Cliff Shaw
(1922-1991), a member of the RAND Corporation who
co-authored the Logic Theorist (considered to be the first
artificial intelligence program), the IPL programming
language, and the linked list data structure used in modern
computing.
At 19:37 in the episode, a worker cleaning up the battle
wreckage in Abel's garage is riding a machine that is sort
of a forklift built onto a Segway!
Use of the new weapon designed by Shaw seems somewhat
analogous to using the dark side of the Force in the
Star Wars franchise; it brings out the aggressive,
angry, threatening nature of those who wield it.
