The tone of voice of that hC employee was perfect, and so was Frog's "I know that guy!" But where is Schlock going "out there," up the maintenance shaft, and how does he think a few weeks will be enough? I've forgotten, does he know just how much the DFA is readying to do back on Earth? And now, what will Zoe do? I'm so happy that we're getting 6 strips this week!

Pretty unobservant of the doc to not notice Zoe & Frog right there. He's not running at his normal level of paranoia. Or he's in a rush and just getting careless.
No, he doesn't know the AI is going to wipe out North America. That started after he walked away.

I was waiting for Dr. Schlock to get his just desserts. But I didn't expect him to bring it on his own!

I'm surprised Zoe would even let him go. How she didn't immediately clong him with that bucket... I dunno.

No, he doesn't know the AI is going to wipe out North America. That started after he walked away. That thought occurred to me too, but you'll notice that Zoe is on the side of Schlock's bad eye so it's understandable that he didn't notice.

Or perhaps his paranoia is so high that it's overloaded and can't deal with anything. garyfritz wrote: No, he doesn't know the AI is going to wipe out North America.

The curse came off then, but the tattoo was still there. We've seen it as recently as when she changed into hC uniform here . So maybe that's not Zoe?

The tattoo never actually came off, but the magic was gone since it was effectively rebuilt with nanites in 4U city. And they could only rebuild the appearance. Unless I'm forgetting something. I think you found one of them Pete goofups.

I forgot who was wearing the mask for a minute and was hoping it was Gwynn. I don't see how Frog and the ripped mask could have swapped characters without frog noticing. As incapacitated as he is.

I think you found one of them Pete goofups. That's acceptable. :) We'll blame it on "camera distance"/perspective and leave it at that. ;)
