We are slowly pulling in closer to the station and denouement, but if we’re lucky the clock might suddenly strike Isidore and we’ll be treated to some Bastille Day fireworks. It’s lovely that the guys are reconnecting, but Travis still carries some undetonated bombs. Expect rough patches.

Why wouldn’t I be surprised if Spotify suggested a certain Marvin Gaye song with a TR-808 after reading this? Lovely to read that the guys are working on patching up things - but the road ahead won’t be easy. I hope Jake and team do a good job of finding any kompromat Kendo may possess. I trust Mark has a devious plan for making what’s to come more difficult than you would hope.

Kendo? Eat your dinner first. Dessert comes after.

Addiction is a harsh mistress! If only poor Travis had a good insight into how people are trying to help him behind the scenes. He’s too proud, unaware and stubborn to see, but he should try chewing on some humble pie once he’s clean. Now the weekend’s started and there’s too many days until the next chapter drops. Gosh darnit! 😂

I could hardly hear myself reading the last few sentences out loud over the noise of the ratchet turning and twisting ever tighter. I don’t see Travis voluntarily going along with this, so send in the goon squad. It’s not going to help, but the grapevine says that Kendo has a really punchable face. Let’s see what happens once the chickens come home to roost.

Autocorrect giveth. Autocorrect taketh.

Reducing down the broth before serving. This is masterfully written - wouldn’t expect less. The pieces on the board are carefully being setup before the game opens. The question now is how much will Jake uncover? Also, Brad taking charge might lead to some wild outcomes. Thanks for this extra sizzle on the grill!

Revenge is a dish best served cold. Who will feed what’s left of Kendo to the dogs?

Everyone who’s read the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy knows that 42 is always the answer. Plus, we need to get properly slow roasted before things hit the fan.

Well put @Matthew k! George feels like a surprisingly modern and easygoing leader. It adds to the considerable charm of the story.

Go Travis! Upgrade from Ambien to ambience during your island retreat. Way to get the press eating out of your hand. That’s slick.

This story just keeps twisting the tuning screw of the guitar tighter and tighter. Fetching my popcorn for when the string snaps and what pieces are there to pick up. Bravo!

Granger leading by example. It seems that the lazy or less competent are in for a hard time. Fingers crossed George can weed out all the wrongdoers. Looking forward to see how it’s going to go down.

Midsummer sends ill tidings all the way into the Will&Travis saga. Both guys and Austin are going to drift for a while. Will handled the Austin situation with a lack of tact worthy of certain people in the news cycle. Getting hooked on Ambien is a no-no. Benzo addiction is hard to get rid of. Trouble be thy name.

I want to see Will and Kendo in a handbags at dawn duel! Death by Granola bar it shall be! Loving these over the top fun chapters.
