And then she, again, tries to kick someone's arse - like Burt's and Pegs' ...

Best wishes!

Burt Did say he was going to come back everyday.. I am sure to 1. Make sure she remains where she is and 2. To torture her further and listen to her beg.

a) The coffin was underneath rubble und concrete, so Burt had no visual on Scratch anymore,
b) Burt destroyed the radio and thus was not able to check on Scratch by listening to either her voice or her breathing.

So, yes: Burt would check the grave. But by no means was he able to see, what was going on underneath the grave, unless he dug a tunnel to it himself ...

Did not recall the part where he destroyed the Radio..

Burt told her he would check on her everyday then smashed the radio. I think giving her the expectation of being able to tell time and negotiate a way out was one more level of horror he was inflicting. A very nasty way to go for a very nasty person.

I "recognized" or "understood" the destruction of the radio not earlier than in my third listening of chapter #48 ... During the first two listening I was just curious about the sound, but I did not conclude anything from it ...

Hi, I am such a sick weirdo, but as I have already started the WA soundtrack thread some time ago, my mind reminded me of the one and only appropriate soundtrack for the situation Scratch was left in at the present day story of We're Alive.

Pay close attention to the lyrics.
