S3E22: Through the Looking Glass


    Scentless Apprentice - Nirvana

    Playing on Jack's car radio when he was looking for the funeral home.  The song is on Nirvana's 1993 album entitled In Utero.  "Scentless Apprentice" is based on the German novel Perfume, by Patrick Süskind. Published in 1985, the novel tells the story of Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, a boy born without body odour but with a heightened sense of smell. Grenouille grows up to be a perfume apprentice, and uses perfume to mask his lack of odour. He also becomes a murderer, stealing the smells of his female victims in his quest to create a human odour for himself.

    Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys

    This song turns out to be the code to shut off the jamming device in the Looking Glass facility.  Charlie pushes the number keys corresponding with the tones. Released as a single on October 10, 1966 (backed with the Pet Sounds instrumental "Let's Go Away For Awhile"), it was the band's third U.S. number-one hit, after "I Get Around" and "Help Me, Rhonda", reaching the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart in December 1966, as well as being their first British chart-topper.
