And now we know why Kusari is a limited resource.
I think schlock is making a big mistake with Roberts here, but we'll see.
Also, that watch is just sitting on top of Torg. Hmmmm!

WTF? I don't know if the speech bubbles are written incorrectly or Schlock is talking to himself. If it's the latter, that would mean... *spec*

I think there's a messed up speech bubble in panel five.
Also, Schlock is willing to dispose of Roberts at this point, when it's clear he's needed for the conscious use of pyrokinesis? I'm confused.

yeah... I'm also sure Pete must have goofed the speech bubbles.
And Kusari is starting to look less and less like a limited resource to me. lol.

It appears this triangle of burning trees, whatever it means, was all he needed Oasis and her pyrokinesis for. I definitely don't get it, but that does seem the be the gist of it.

Even for villains that off subordinates for minor things, I think they would say, "Whoa there Irving. You are a little too kill happy right now. Maybe you should slow down and not waste irreplaceable assets so quickly?"

What happened to Kusasha-with-the-watch? She hung up and keeled over on top of Torg. ??
Can anyone read the message in panel 3? Probably not important, but with Pete you never know...

So... maybe the Schlock triangle was actually all about a physical triangle?
Some (not too speccy I hope) thoughts:
It's not clear what the three points are. Actually I guess guessing what they are would be speccy, so nevermind about that here.
Kusari totally just keeled over in the van when the other one was activated. So maybe lots of Sasha bodies, not so many Kusaris? Is she dead? Or can the 'Kusari consciousness' or whatever jump back and forth? Or is this not what is happening at all?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure 'we win' is meant to be Roberts. His arm is extended like he's talking.
I'm trying to read what it says on the screen - looks like "Schlock ... Incendiary Analysis ... ... Imminent. Please stand by", where I'm missing a few words.

I get the top row of panels, I have no idea what's going on in the bottom. Anyone spare an explanation?
There's only the one watch, so unconscious Sasha-Kusari is the same one closing the watch and turning off the phone a few seconds ago. If there are two Dr Schlocks it's not clear enough that they're at different points. I'm just confused here and hope there's a strip tomorrow to clear up what I read today.

I get not wanting to keep Roberts, who can override Oasis around long term. However, it seems a tad short sighted to off him now. Best make sure your plan actually works, then have Kusari off him.
Unless he now has enough voice samples that he doesn't need the man anymore.

We don't know if he's going to off Roberts. We don't know if there is a spaceship docked at airlock 1 or not.

It look to me too that there is a mess up in the speech bubble. Also, I don't understand why Sasha lost conciousness. Is the driving Sasha Out too? Or can she only be two at the same time? When they dealt with Riff they seemed to imply an other Sasha 'sniping team) was ordered to kill him, so that might mean she can be at least three (I assume snipping team died in the falling of hereticorp).
It make little sense for Schlock to kill robert after he considered letting Chen live.
