Exactly. Even when I was on an "Express to Chaals" from Harvard once we slowed to a crawl as we passed through each station. She mentioned offhandedly something about how they [that generic "they" -- MBTA officials or whatever] didn't think it was a suicide. I would think standing *on* the track would be a much more effective suicide method. Preferably between stations, so the trains are going at a higher speed and you're less likely to survive the impact.

Yeah, I wondered if perhaps I would need narrative buildup to really get the finale episode, but the question fell out between my brain and the keyboard.
