Time to say good-bye, now!
Time for you to fly, now!
We’ll try not to cry now!
Hope you had some fun!
Now what must be done?
Strict controls on zombies!
We’ll just blame it on these
Undead ones!
Easiest to claim
That zombies are to blame,
’Cause they’re goopy and they’re gross!
These abominations
Face recriminations
From our accusations,
Now we will indict!
This is such a breeze,
Accusing them of treason!
Unity agrees an’
Says we’re right!
Every time the same,
The zombies are to blame,
’Cause they’re goopy and they’re gross!
Unity: “Nah, you go ahead and knock yourself out, Babe. Go kick over a few half-full cups, maybe scratch the furniture. Go crazy and give them the full ‘Sweetheart treatment’.”
It disturbs me that the best a city-train full of mad scientists can offer is an explanation that makes sense to Unity.
One could reasonably argue that things would have been much simpler to fix without a zombie rampage in progress, but at no time were they the causal factor. Thus, the explaining mad scientist has completely failed in his attempt to deflect blame to a plausible target.
Bad mad scientist, no cookie!
Maybe the brains haven’t fully worn off yet, she did eat 300 kilos! If one brain can make her smart for about 30 seconds (from the fist story with Violet), and that one was probably a cow brain (I don’t know what types of brains are served), then how long does 300 Kilos of human brain last!?
Augh Sweetheart’s facial expression in the third panel. I have this incredible urge to kiss her on the head. And fluffle her fur. Except she is only an image on my computer screen.
Poor Sweetheart. Being responsible, ethical, and sensible is a great burden. That is why it is better to go mad.
“Goopy”-ness aside, they rampaged and murdered (however temporarily) after one missed meal, ONE. These are not the acts of a functional member of society.
Additionally, the negative effects of a necrocracy are well-documented.
Sweetheart, you actually expected those in charge to take responsibility, admit their shortcomings, come up with an intelligent, workable plan, and not foist blame on those currently unpopular in the society? I thought you were enough of a career bureaucrat not to be surprised by that.
Honestly I think they’re blaming the systems that control the zombies. “x needs stricter control” doesn’t mean”x needs to change”, after all, it means “non-x elements need to work to change x’s behaviors”.
they did seem pretty goopy
Seriously, Sweetheart, just walk away. It ain’t worth it.
Forget it Sweetheart, it’s St. Charlie.
Okay, now we need a neo-noir story set in L.A.
I feel your pain Sweetheart. You’re a shade too sensible for these guys.
‘You’re all impossible!’
“Did someone say IMPOSSIBLE? They did! Ha ha ha ha!”
Sweetheart, just calmly explain: they don’t have enough paperwork.
… Unity turned down an opportunity to rampage…? IT’S LIKE I DON’T KNOW HER ANYMORE!
MAN, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT SUCKS!
No, no, I love how Unity is evolving!
Perhaps she’s just letting her rampage-o-meter build up a little? It makes for better rampages if one lets their rage simmer for a while.
It’s just not as much fun when you have permission.

but those scientists clearly learned NOTHING!

Yes, daily, on my newspaper’s comics page.
“Warning! Your sick burn meter has just detected a large quantity of Oh Snap. Please proceed to the nearest exit in an orderly fashion.”

It’s a tragically typical reaction from those in authority. The educational outreach continues.
