I definitely have "How do you slow this thing down?" stuck in my head while I am posting this.

I would be more worried about how long the caravan ran along a mountain ledge without falling off more than whether or not the inventions to slow it down are particularly plausible, personally, so I accept "in the nick of time" as a compromise between the two. I had not noticed that ukulele business before; I seem to recall mentioning in only the previous Believe It Or Not that Daniel Handler's understanding of space and capacity sometimes seem a little questionable, and here is a good example. The physics of the slippery slope are similarly dubious... I give the chores assigned to Sunny by the troupe an easy pass, though, for as Sunny herself remarks they are deliberately intended to be cruel and unfeasible.
I'm going to make the more or less arbitrary decision to go with the theme of Anna Karenina, then. The idea that an objective theme to a complex Russian novel can be both identified and refined to an exact yet lengthy sequence of words consistently enough to be used as a password between people who've only read the novel and have no other indications is completely ludicrous - and very much a joke not to be taken seriously, mind, so I'm not sure why Netflix did. But being a joke doesn't give it a free pass under the terms of the poll, so it gets my vote.
