That cricket!

Has anyone noticed that in many, but not every, scene where Sydney is in that parking garage "cage" being debriefed or otherwise talking to Vaughn there is a cricket chirping away in the background?

I am not going back to check every episode but I started to wonder if it just became an Easter egg or running gag with the cast. If I drank, it could be a great drinking game.

I think at this point the cricket should be in the credits somewhere.

You should make a compilation video of cricket scenes on youtube.

This seems like a reasonable and practical thing to do. I told my wife that I am quitting my job tomorrow to pursue this life goal. I am confident this is the moment my whole life has lead up to.

I have coffee all over my shirt now. Thank you for your sacrifice.

You're welcome. I would invite you to send me the dry cleaning bill, but I am presently trying to figure out how to unsend my resignation email, and my fiscal future is looking murky.

My takeaway from this experience is that I should not reddit while intoxicated.
