Here's the REAL KICKER. Just a couple of months prior to the filming of that episode, John Anderson, who played Kevin Uxbridge, had lost his wife. I'm guessing he didn't have to dig too deep as an actor to portray his anguish. It is a really beautiful, emotionally wrenching episode. He wasn't really "omnipotent", but he was immortal, with vast powers.
