And when no place is safe, all the places are.
Wait is that how it works?

Wow, those reference links continue to be needed. I never would have remembered that random aside about the B&B -- and it was only two months ago.

Does "closest and most trusted friends" *really* include Bun-bun?

I mean, they were never scared of bunbun for a second in the past event. Just annoyed that he ditched them. It takes a lot of trust to not be scared when you're woken up like that and threatened with various surgical instruments.

Anyone else notice the kid in the photos with Riff and Torg looks exactly like the kid from the beginning of this chapter? pelrun wrote: Does "closest and most trusted friends" *really* include Bun-bun? Maybe in Bun-Bun's case it's like Count Olaf and the Baudelaire orphans in that being the closest relatives was based on proximity more than anything else. And you can always trust Bun-Bun to do what is in *his* best interests. So, closest and most trusted in that context is easy to apply to Bun-Bun.

Interesting.
Wonder if this "friend" of theirs is someone that Torg has memories of, or has no memories of.

Was Zoe saying "implementations" intentional? It's the kind of mistake someone COULD make, though I don't really see it being very in character for her (it's closer to how Sam would speak). The word should be implements or instruments, the latter being more standard though the former is still technically correct. She could mean that she was threatened with various types of surgery, which I guess is right but it feels very very wrong.

(...) Nice catch. We never see him again, afterwards.

Yes, Torg is in the photo with him. But when we first saw Mr. F, he couldn't remember himself. So does anybody else remember him? Looks like he's was a pretty good friend to Torg and Riff, but no flashbacks have shown him going on any adventures with them...

Torg doesn't appear to be in any of the pictures, which are Riff's personal memories. Torg may or may not know who he was, if they happened to be childhood friends. Good catch. I was wondering who he was, but didn't remember him from the Prelude. Originally when I saw that strip, I thought it was something recent, perhaps only a few weeks/days before the situation with Olivia. But now it seems that was from the past, when Torg and Riff were kids. Wow.
