Wait, aren’t either of them going to suspect that they plan on eating Tip? That was my thought before I realized bring your own might mean donating their own body flesh to the barbecue.
Exactly. After Unity, Tip is the most physically and combat-capable person on the team. If the zombies plan on ambushing and eating him, I would be worried for the zombies.
Also, Nick kind of hates Tip’s guts. And while Virginia doesn’t share Nick’s outright antagonism, she does seem to find Tip to be a bit shallow, boring, and occasionally annoying, and probably wouldn’t care too much if he got himself mauled by zombies.
Heck, she’d probably get a big kick out of getting the opportunity to rebuild him Six Million Dollar Man style. She’s never been particularly fond of Tip – but she’s never hesitated to take advantage of him for her own amusement.
At the risk of being boring, it is more likely they just buy at the local supermarket or trap/hunt whatever animal they can find. It could be replica meats from a machine or something. Just because they are undead doesn’t mean they are unethical by nature.
Had the impression that in some earlier off-camera meeting Skin-Horse shared some technology related to the care and feeding, particularly the feeding, of zombies. But I think the Brain-O-Mat came later—though by now the commercial models may be on the market.
I would’a thought “Virginia,” but it’s the sentimentalist in me. Some lyrics (not mine):
“Hey, Virginia
I know it’ll come out right
When I look into your eyes
It’s something in you
Doing it to me
My knees start to shake
My hands start to perspirate
Every time that you say wait
Lord, I think my belt will break
Virginia, touch me like you do
Touch me like you do
Like you do, like you do
Like you do, like you do
Like you do, aw, yeah…”
Being dead, they probably would be vintage. Doesn’t Mme. Tete go back to the French Revolution?

Yeah, I noticed he said “BYO”, but didn’t say what they’re supposed to bring. The mind reels at the possibilities.
Crossed my mind too.
Who is to say they don’t suspect that and simply aren’t concerned?
Maybe they’re confident he can handle himself? Or maybe they aren’t, but they’re simply not all that concerned about his wellbeing?

I agree that neither one of them really likes Tip, but I don’t think even Nick actually wants him to get seriously injured.

Of course… that’s why she needs the anemometer… For her anti-weather-machine machine.
Moonlit walk… Does that mean it should be dark outside?
Or is “knock out the sun” a feature Virginia was just about to test?
Even odds on that one. Any bettors?
It’s Dr. Lee, not Mr. Burns…
It’s Tip with his trace of werewolf blood that has to worry about moonlit walks…
I assumed it means the sun is starting to go down, as evidenced by Nick commenting that it is getting late, and it will be dark in a little while.
He said it’s getting late, but that doesn’t mean it’s night yet. They could take a moonlit walk later on.
I got my copy of “The Reactorside Reader today, and I wanted to say thanks for the awesome shot of Helen and Dave! https://photos.app.goo.gl/kA1H8FsoSrSxXSAf7
No problem! Glad you got it!
FORESHADOWING.
He calls her Gin now.

Sadly, an aircraft weighs too much, and a human body too little, for him to be her Ton Nick.
It doesn’t have to make perfect sense if it sounds good together.
Oh, that’s good.
BYO what? On second thought, don’t wanna know.
