Chapter 42-3 Chasing Ghosts

[Gnex]

Meanwhile, somewhere in the distance, a table is being flipped

Wasn't there a musical or broadway show or something with tables being flipped???? STOMP or something like that?!??

I swear everything is just falling into place!!!

Here is my theory on Ink.

....

The world is his playground.

Now...what is his end game?

I'm still waiting for the episode that reveals Skittles to be the mastermind behind everything.

"Trollin', got my chips cashed in. Keep trollin', like the do-dah man. Together, more or less in line, just keep trollin' on..."

The concept could be worked into the musical version. I have a sneaky suspicion that nothing would make you happier

We've already established that Skittles is the over-all narrator of the story.... Not michael..... Skittles comes along after everything is over and done and collects all the journals and goes back to his water tower to read them and eat MRE's!!!

I miss Skittles. I want him to return. Will he ever return? I think it would be nice.

I got a feeling he's gonna pop back up. He'll probably be the one who ends up saving the day in the end. I just got this image of Michael setting up some elaborate trap to take out Ink and his Z army but when he goes to set it off, something goes wrong and then Skittles comes out of nowhere to sacrifice himself to set off the trap and take out Ink.

I was thinking he would either be bait/a sacrifice....

As Farouk of the APA would say, "Damn!"

Also, with everyone speculating what the symbols mean, I will not be thrilled with Kc if it turns into some message for Ralphie or us to "be sure to drink more ovaltine."

I'm figuring that he fed the unsuccessful experiments to the successful one's. Maybe you had to be able to break out of your prison (like an bird in an egg) for him to let them live.

The smile:
Someone pointed out that when he attacked the tower he had broken teeth. Now, his teeth are described as providing contrast to the dark of his tattooed face. Does that mean he is able to regenerate teeth? That he brushes his teeth?

If he is all about the game, maybe he was pleased to show it to someone.
Naw, he just thought Puck was going to die.

The most puzzling thing to me is how some cells were broken in and some were broken out. Somebody just mentioned it but no thoughts have been spent on it.
I understand the scenario where Ink injects the soon-to-be behemots with something and then locks them with a bunch of corpses to eat. They eat, they grow, they break the doors out.
What puzzles me is the doors broken in:
- you don't break it because you don't have the keys. Ink obviously has the keys to get in and out.
- you don't break it because you want to get to someone locked inside. I mean, you can, but then you can't keep it closed in there anymore. So, again, if Ink needed to get in, inject the person with something and then keep him closed there for the change to happen, he would have just opened the door with the keys and closed it again.
So, if you have the keys and you can get to the person inside by other means, what happened? Were those inside really just snacks? Then why all the markings on the doors? Those represented the price in zombie currency?
