(h) Eames totally has his own crew. I wish there was a spin-off TV show about Eames and his crew. I vote the Ponds on post haste.
(i) Arthur tots says "paradoxical architecture" like it means "get in my pants." Ariadne is being a Real Adult and Learning Things and Arthur is like, "let me show you my *hint hint* *nudge nudge* paradoxical architecture." Oh, Arthur. And it's totally right after Dom left to get Eames so maybe he's just getting geared up to be all WHAT NO I DIDN'T MISS YOU SHUT UP.
(j) I don't think Dom is having any trouble telling the difference between reality and dreaming at all, actually. I think he keeps checking his totem because he wants to believe he's having trouble telling the difference. The truth is that he's sort of reveling in his own psychological breakdown. I think he'd rather have something romantic and grand wrong with him--like blurring the line of reality and fantasy--than deal with the fact that he's dealing with very real, very normal, and not at all extraordinary grief. He feels like having such a mundane reaction to Mal's death is disrespectful to how extraordinary she was and he just wants it to be more.
