..........Sooooooooo!! true, Rick has bottomed out, And the thing I didn't expect was for Drew to figure it out. I think Drew has figured it out and wants to help Rick out in this situation. Rick is still undecided on how he will approach the new developments. Drew has already resolved the problem and is trying to help Rick out. It would seem Drew is the hero here, however the unspoken truth is still unsaid, and needs resolution. Next chapter should be titled 'Blowout'
..............I somehow doubt a third person that can be recognized by Chase and Brandon will wind up at that resort, far from the US, hummmmmmm, we haven't heard from the other band though have we? And Cody is out of the time line here.
The Scar does have an objective even though he is dealing with the Iranians, don't put it past him to steal something from them in this rescue/'theft' operation.
Poor goat and his Shadowyness!! I'm not sure about joining a inflammatory group like this! I will await the long over due chapter of his Shadowyness current novel.
.........Well. after midnight, the next day we usually watch TV, Rose Bowl or what ever game I'm allowed to watch. If not there is always the bar to go to!!!
..........Haha!! I have already thrown out the theory that US intelligence knew Scar was still alive. But in the Goats world, it didn't materialize! Therefore I think this will be from the Generals POV, and he will get it done by the skin of his teeth.
............Scar is definitely all for himself, but to it is very much what he came accumulate from wherever that makes the Scar survive. It would not be in his best interest to exploit and see the demise of his 'team'. If he were to do so he would not be able to gather a team in the future. Word would travel further than he could compromise. Getting a squad or platoon of mercenaries together who know their employee is indifferent and would compromise the contract.
But we have all seen the Scar's deployment in the other series, why he hasn't been killed is beyond me, I guess money talks here! And that is all that has kept the Scar from being alive!!
.......Softhearted?? Volcano erupting, earthquakes a shaking and a pending big one too! Eric unmasking, Scar unfolding, Brian surviving, by no fault of the goat on his own. In a Christmassy sense the goat relents, leaving us an ending a bit tense. Merry Christmas back at ya CJ (BTW where ever did you find the Star of David with 'merry christmas' written it it?)
