Chapter 40-1 Monsters

[Grognaurd]

I heard a crow when Victor and Tanya were at ground zero. I knew it was different, since durring the first visit everything was dead. Then, it is confirmed that the haze was gone and the #7 show up. I hear another crow late in the episode at the courthouse...

Just finished. Need to digest it and think a little, and probably listen again. Definitely time!

this episode was AWESOME.
i guess my predictions were correct.

doing a re-listen now! so much to catch...

Kelly: "with a sh*t load of ball point pens--no pun intended." haha! loved that little joke squeezed in during a very tense moment.

hmmm...a lot to think about in this one.

First thing that comes to mind for me is: why is a little one attacking a regular. Is Ink having all the regulars exterminated to make way for his numbered pets? Or are they just clearing out the roamers that haven't joined with Ink's army?

The other thing that on my mind is the chapter artwork. What is that? At first I thought it might have been something at the Colony, but that doesn't look like the Colony to me. It looks like it's out in the woods somewhere.

BUT, before I go, the thing that's bothering me the most is this: back in the early chapters the TIVO recording said:

The plea of insanity has been accepted in the case of Bill Roberts, nicknamed “Ink” after his numerous tattoos that cover him from head to toe.

Ink was convicted of multiple homicides outside of Santa Monica last May. He is currently being transferred to a mental health facility. Doctors have confirmed that he is paranoid schizophrenic, and the family itself was devastated—

He is currently being transferred to a mental health facility—

We are receiving updated reports of the rioting in downtown Los Angeles. News of more riots are being reported in many metropolitan areas outside of Los Angeles, Detroit, San Diego, New York, Houston, Chicago and also internationally in cities such as—

But today, it seems like he *never even got into the court house*, never mind start the transfer to a mental health facility! It also seemed that he was coming to court from prison, to which he'd been transferred from a mental health facility. Is it just that he was due to go back to Cain Hospital after the court hearing? Why was he ever in prison if his mental health was so bad? Is this a breadcrumb to follow? Or just a continuity blooper??

So many questions!!

Or is the Little One just hungry? It might be a while since it had a tasty human to snack on...

A critical point in the story has been reached. No longer are the survivors in the dark about what we know or suspect. Now they are piecing things together just ahead of us.

He was never in prison. I won't comment early on, but it's not a blooper.
