Bob Benson is Bobby Draper from the future. The season finale will reveal that this was a sci-fi short story by Ken Cosgrove all along, à la the Roseanne series finale.

synecdoche:
I have a lot of opinions on Zach Braff’s kickstarter (for the record, they are mostly identical to my opinion on the Veronica Mars kickstarter and that’s a show I love to death) but it’s really all pointless because fuck it, he’s going to get enough money to make his movie and that’s fine and I’m going to continue to struggle to pay rent and that’s fine too because...
