After I got to the end of the episode I went back and rewatched the Yuki/Itsuki "plot" conversation and the second time I actually understood it more fully. In the full context, it's hilarious, with Itsuki going all "so you're saying this and this and I am this and this and that's all I know...it *is* all I know, isn't it? unless you're going to use this dramatic moment to tell me more...No? Ah. I see. Kind of." ...or something to that effect.
What I couldn't figure was if Haruhi or Kyon was holding the camera, and if the narration was added after the fact when Kyon was editing, or during the thing.
I love that their roles mimicked their actual life situations, even to the detail of Mikiru being exploited and Itsuki having power that only gets "unlocked" in certain circumstances, and how he is the "key" in the video just like he "unlocks" the closed spaces.
