As an aside, I just hope that somehow Marta can get back to Jared. She deserves something because without her Rick would never have found Gus again.

We have a plan! I think I'll be playing the music to '633 Squadron' in my head while the attack takes place. https://youtu.be/XWXQUhBsUVM

Bravo! I should also be shouting 'Encore', but I suspect there isn't going to be one - Gus is in too much of a hurry to get away.

Perhaps the augments are designed to only work when they are away from Earth?

Poor unsuspecting Narthies. Let's hope the one who got away can be found in time to be saved and live to fight another day.

Hopefully not when they were in the ointment as that would get very messy.😀

It's good to see the various races getting on so well together, although there always has to be a fly in the ointment. Mind you, it wouldn't be anyhere near as enjoyable a story without one!

Yep, it's time to work out how to stave off Crowla's plans. 🙂

Mike would have problems trying to do much on his own without Cally because Cally has Nyf. And where Cally goes so goes Derry. Thus the boys aren't going to get left behind when it comes to dealing with 'them thar Criters' 🙂

Confession time - I don't know who George Carlin was either. 😕

It'd be a nifty little thing to have.🙂

Toilets with adjustable butt seats eh? That should save the user going into a Tailaspin! 🙂

Love the last line! That was some drive for a country boy. 🙂

Tim says the site is 'self healing' - whatever that means!

I just knew as I was reading this chapter that things were going too well for Rick. There just had to be a blockage in the drain and it has turned out to be a large one. It's gonna take more than just a sink plunger to resolve this. 🙂 Do I foresee Rick heading for the windy city?

It looks as if Rick has flushed Rita's plans down the john. Proving that everyone needs water, but not too much of it at once.

Cute young Russian Ice Skater:

The sh1t really hit the fan! Metaphorically speaking at least. 🙂 I bet Rick was thinking his day couldn't get any worse after Zoltan and a stinking flooded basement, but then Heinrich calls. Definitely a three strike day! Maybe things will improve at the meeting, but I somehow have my doubts...

Rick's life looks about to explode out of the rut it has been in for so long. I hope he can rustle up some opposition.

Good that Michele finally found a current that brought him safely to harbour and the arms of his best friend. An excellent story.

Michele is missing Toto more than Toto is missing him. Right now he resembles a piece of driftwood and one has to hope that he is collected by a good current.

A very quick (and short) response to Prompt 869. --------- It was Mother's Day and I'd bought her a bunch of daffodils. She was very pleased with them, so much so that after I'd given them to her she made me my favorite carrot cake, sort of in return. As soon as it was ready she cut us both a slice – a little one for her and a big one for me. It was a nice sunny morning so we decided to go out and sit at our table on the patio to eat them. We'd been there for a few minutes when a gray bunny suddenly appeared at the bottom of the garden. I was so shocked to see it that I knocked over my glass and spilled juice all over the table. Because the glass was nearly full there was a lot of juice and it ran over the edge right where I was sitting. It made a right mess and I hope it doesn't mean she'll have to buy me a new pair of pants. ++++++ a gray bunny, a carrot cake, spilled juice, a new pair of pants, and a bunch of daffodils.

A lot appears to have happened of which Rick is blissfully unaware. Unless he calls Walter back this evening - probably not now Gus has issued an invitation - I guess all will be revealed by Jerry when they meet for breakfast at Jahnke's tomorrow. Am sure that chapter will need a LARGE Rita warning!☣️

So, one puzzle is solved but we are left with another...

I'm happy for Rick - and for Gus. But I fear something is going to happen to ruffle their feathers...
