Punch lines spill out furiously as the show spirals into multilayered flashbacks and inventive fantasies (when Peter wonders whether to lie to his wife, for instance, the angel and the devil that duel cunningly over his shoulders turn out to have angels and devils dueling over theirs...

Lieutenant Munoz (RodrigoCharazo) was a favorite as the figure of dissent,with his deceptively sunny but really acid piece"All You Have to Do is Wait." It is with "Funny,"towards the end of the show, that Roulleau finallysinks his teeth into Stine and shows some fire inthe eye. However, this is not really a failingwhen playing a character which is generally staidand less than...
