Not sure what you mean by 'eliminating'. Both episodes were written by
Macintosh. 17, 18, and 19 were not. I think that filming takes place
pragmatically, not chronologically (i.e. they might film at the same time
scenes from several episodes that take place in a specific location),
and broadcast order has little to do with the filming/editing completion
date of an episode.
