Does he see anybody he knows?

*Imagining the “swarm of hornets” noise in the Pink Floyd song Hey You..

We see that it’s a good thing the lab Topsiders disconnected their data antennas. “Eye/I” apparently now has control over the rest of the living population in the colony. Scary thought, but at least the “drones” are inert for the moment. I’m assuming the buzzing Wally is hearing is feedback or some such from the transmissions from Eye to the Topsiders.

Duffy is still such a kid! You’d think he’d’ve learned to tread lightly by now, given all he’s been through so far.

Well, this was unexpected. Thanks Aaron for throwing us for a loop.

Well, I was half-right. Ted has the non-mutated Topsiders gathered. But what will he do with/to them now? I expect it won’t be very pleasant.

So the Topsiders that were murdering the others were maybe culling out the ones that weren’t under control?

Could be worse. Could be raining Topsiders.

„That noise! That buzzing! Can‘t you hear it?“

I can. I have tinnitus.

EYE is ‘creating’ an army of topsiders and is overloading himself.

Are Wally’s ears special?

Where’s Waldo??

The elephant speaks truth…

O.M.G. They’re manifestations from all the different realities- whether of every single person or every person there is the same one. Or… they’re all of Terrence … and his reality is just collapsed… oh that’s messy. And they’ll all turn towards the Eye for Blood…

Interesting. They are not all facing forward. Some are facing sideways and some backwards. I wonder what that might mean? It’s as though they were caught in mid conversation and were then somehow ordered to coalesce as a crowd of drones awaiting orders.

Also, my first thought when seing the crowd was how much they reminded me of the toothbrush mob.

Uh-Oh!

I think I know why his dittos weren’t working- they were needed someplace else!

Now, if you can remove the antenna from one of them, what might happen?

At the moment they are not monsters….yet. To use an old song…..Turn and face the strange. Ch Ch Changes There’s going have to be a different man. Time may change me but I can’t trace time

Just so many out there. Never thought I would ever see so many in the same place.

Oh, the buzzing of the bees…!

There’s a can opener running and he doesn’t know where the kitchen is.

Topsider flash mob? Will they start doing sychronized Macarena? Or YMCA? Or-most appropriately-break into the Thriller zombie dance?

The cicadas are early this year.

Holy s### it’s like a debug room. Now, when that stuff happens in a reality that houses living creatures, it’s bloody scary. It’s scary enough just going out of bounds playing 3D Mario games…
