"Top Hat" opens with a devastating flashback that reveals the traumatic origin of Oz Cobb's ruthless ambition. As a child, Oz, feeling resentful of the attention his mother gave to his brothers, Jack and Benny, locked them in a sewer tunnel during a game of hide-and-seek. The tunnel overflowed, and they drowned. This dark revelation shows that Oz's capacity for cruelty was present from a very young age.
The episode is named after the 1935 Fred Astaire musical film Top Hat . In the flashback, young Oz watches the movie with his mother as his brothers drown. The film's imagery—the elegance, the violence suggested in the dance, the white tie and tails—represents a fantasy world for Oz, juxtaposed against the grim reality of his actions. It also plays with audience expectations, as many fans had hoped the title meant Oz would finally don his iconic comic-book monocle and top hat, making the episode's true meaning all the more tragic and ironic.
