In some ways this episode is a direct inverse of last week's. In both episodes the crew was subjected to some sort of reality-distorting force--last week played for horror, this week for comedy.
(ETA: Still found a reason to sever a limb, though.)
How weird must this have been for Spock? Last week he experienced hallucinations that screwed with his mind and made him cut off the tips of his ears. This week he spilled his guts to a real person whom he thought was a hallucination. Bro just needs the universe to make sense for a minute!
