Hmm ... Adult Swim still has this listed as 'Ghosts'. I wonder if anybody's told them the real title yet.

I guess we won't know for sure until 12:28 as the credits roll.

A poltergeist is "an ostensibly paranormal phenomenon attributed to an an invisible spirit or ghost that manifests itself by moving and influencing objects, generally in a particular location such as a house or room or place within a house." We've 24's skull move, and the promo mentions that 21 is going crazy. I don't see any reason to assume that the titles have been reversed.

The title could simply be a play on words. Pinstripes and Polkadots is a brand of laundry detergent. Or it could be relating to something else entirely. Who knows. But I think it's safe to assume the poltergeists half of the title is more relevant.

For all we know, Orpheus is a central player in the finale and they just didn't show him in the promo.

Yes, but tonight's episode is The Better Man. I'm talking about next week, the finale, for which Ghosts was the working title. Adult Swim has that episode still listed as Ghosts. This week's episode is listed as The Better Man on Adult Swim.

Unless you're referencing comment 8, in which case you have a valid point.

Last season almost every title was listed on AS (and thus, on the directv guide) as the working title. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what the episodes are called though, does it?
