I can absolutely see what they were trying to do but the rendition of Shimmy Shimmy Ya at the end perfectly encapsulated this whole episode. The delivery by the actor came with about 50% of ODB's energy and was bland and unoriginal, which is essentially what the entire episode did to his legacy. They tried to be too clever and artistic but what they actually created was a bloated dream chapter in a much larger, more interesting story.
They could have done so much more with the story of ODB and picked from any number of chapters in his life to adapt but instead they focussed on this. It's far from bad but it's a huge shame.
