There will be no update on Thanksgiving, as I am traveling. See you next Monday.

11.25 Transcript
Kiro: Reina, the president isn’t supposed to fix everything. All you need to do is assure them we’re working on it.
Reina: I can’t…
Reina: When it comes down to it, I can’t really do anything.
Ian: Why don’t we just tie Darien up somewhere?
Kiro: No… we need to try cooperating with them. Let Darien’s group keep order, while we focus on keeping the camp fed.
Reina: Are you joking? He should be executed for treason!
Ian: Reina’s back…
Execution, banishment. Yipes. First order of business is to teach these kids to dial back the severity of their punishments.
Reina needs to cool down and learn compromise and cooperation or bad things are going to happen. I wonder why Reina has such animosity toward Darien.
Hmm…I have a theory. I also have a hunch there’s going to be another reveal coming out of all this.
Okay wow. Talk about an overreaction.
I love snarky Ian. But I can’t figure out how his hair works. If it’s a mohawk, with front-to-back spikes as in the last panel, how can the same spikes go left-to-right in panel 3? If there’s a consistent solution, could we see a view from above to clarify? Thanks…
Borrowing from Charles Schultz saying Charlie Brown is not literally bald (Schultz said he’s blond and his barber father maintains it in a buzz cut): Ian likely has short, nearly colorless, blond hair. As a result, he looks bald, except that you can see his hair where it doesn’t have his scalp behind it, around the perimeter of his silhouette.
The animosity seems to be mutual. If you ask them why, you’re only inviting a conversation along the lines of “He started it!” “No, she started it!” And so on indefinitely.
Look, I’m trying to STOP the bloodshed. Executing someoen’s just going work against that.
