    So, that’s one Chekov’s gun that’s been cocked.

      Oh, Chekov’s gun was cocked the day they brought the Victor device back from St. Charlie and stuck it in there next to the Beni. I’m actually surprised it’s lasted this long without anyone pulling the trigger, especially with Tigerlily running the building.

        Probably she considered them not funky enough.

          Someone actually managed to create fusion reactors that produce more energy than they use, and she considered them not funky enough?! What is she, MAD?!!

          Oh, wait… yeah… she is. Nevermind.

            Fusion is so unhip.

            You’re only impressed because you don’t know how to do it yourself. Tigerlily could make one out of coathangers.

            Actually that’s the problem–Tigerlily’s spring-powered fusion reactors consume more energy than they produce, so somebody’s always got to be winding them up.

            The cold fusion craze was in the late ’80s, and we know how she feels about the ’80s.

    Is Hitty powered by the third fusion pie? Luigi maybe?

      My guess is yes, if only so we can see the whole set. At some point, they will either connect Hitty with the other generators to finish the endgame. It’ll be her biggest hit yet.

        Gavotte wanted them to power a giant robot, remember? We now have two robots bolted together making a bigger robot right next to them…

          And we have Tigerlily, who is capable of making small robots, and Moustachio, who is capable of attaching smaller robots (namely himself) to larger robots (namely Hitty). Could Gavotte be THAT prescient, that she intentionally got the building condemned, just so Tigerlily could move in?

          If my theory is correct that Mr. Green is actually Pavane, we could be looking at a mother/daughter boss fight soon.

            You think Mr. Green is supposed to be Pavane? How does that work? He’s a human-supremacist bigot, I think the odds of him being a non-human are extremely slim.

            It was a weak theory, I’ll admit, but a theory nonetheless.

      That’s been suggested before, though I don’t recall that Moustachio’s guess was ever confirmed. Myself, I’ve been wondering since “Unsinkable” if Luigi is the power source for Bubbles’s big yacht. If your ship is built of ice, a nice compact fusion pie presents a smaller problem of waste heat management than big bunker-fuel boilers. (I thought I’d posted something on that theory back during “Unsinkable”, but I can’t find it if I did.)

        Good recall! I had (obviously) forgotten. Luigi Habakkuk though? Hmm.

    What about Unity? She wanted Fusion Pie

    Didn’t Gavotte say she was going to power a giant robot with them? Hitty is kinda large…no offense, Hitty…

      HITTY NOT ASHAMED OF BODY CREATED BY CREATOR. HITTY ALSO KNOWS MOUSTACHIO LIKES BIG GEARS AND WOULD NOT LIE TO HITTY ABOUT IT.

    “Hey Mac! What about these green glowy things?”

    “They ain’t on the manifest. Leave ‘em. We ain’t being paid to move all this junk.”

      Since they were locked in the safe, it was probably more like…

      “Hey, anything in this wall safe?”

      “Nothin’ on the list. They prob’ly cleaned it out when they left.”

      “What about that old washing machine behind the desk?”

      “It’s bolted to the floor. Forget about it. If it was worth anything, they wouldn’a left it here. …Oh, look… my watch says the time is beer thirty.”

        Is that the watch with the sweep pretzel hand?
