That’s a lot of exposition to wade through, but now we know why Jemini has been kept as a “guest” for so long, and that Vlad doesn’t know that she’s a duplicate. You can’t really blame him; after all, he never read the SCIENCE FICTION DOUBLES FEATURE and FLIGHT INTO HORROR story arcs.
Looks like Vlad and Bone China have hit the point of no return (yeah, “hit”, har har). Blood is boiling…but whose will be spilled?
OK. He dies now.
He dies….NOW! Okay, wait, wait…he diieeeessss…..NOW! No, no, wait for it, it’s coming….aaaaaaaaaaand….NOW!
Damnation!
Delicacy is difficult without understanding a situation. Of course Scap’s going to come screaming in like a wrecking ball soon too. I understand Vlad’s freak-out though. You spend years plotting this kind of thing only to finally make your move and suddenly your nosy girlfriend throws the cops in there! That’s a mess. I don’t approve, but I understand.
The cops wont be the problem. Bet Die Kabale have moles in all kinds of places. So, chances are, they will get to know what Vlad is planning, i. e. slaughter them all, by way of hearing from the leak in his office and probably do something nice and drastic about it.
And duplicate Gem is in for a special surprise. A nice fundamental identity surprise.
At the end of the day, I still bet Scapula ends up being the harshest monkeywrench.
Could have been worse; Vlad’s mom could have shown up (after being missing/dead for forty years) and tidies up his office by sending all of his incriminating files to the feds. Then she takes him out shopping for embarrassing nerdy clothes.
Yep, that would forever destroy any sort of villain cred he could ever manage!
Oh, Dear… Vlad now has the scorn of his woman to deal with… striking BC just might be the last thing he ever does… well, maybe climbing the stairs, fighting with Jemini … maybe bleeding.
Sometimes I think climbing the stairs is the last thing I’ll ever do (but then I remember there’s more Pop Tarts downstairs and the vicious cycle resumes).
Ah… yes, Pop Tarts… one could probably eat Pop Tarts… and then be done for it. Those things are loaded with death-inducing chemicals!
