I have updated my “plot map” for the current story. Find it at http://dt.canadatoyou.com/nottafallarmove/. The direction that the story is headed is becoming clearer, so I have cleaned up the beat map and added the extra week. The text was too wordy, since my purpose was not to replace reading the strips, but just to outline the structure of the story, so I cut the descriptions down.
So where are we now? In my opinion, we entered a new act on Wednesday. The main characters were all introduced by Tuesday, including T-Bolt (who Lee is still portraying under deep cover).
Act 3: The hunt for Putty Puss
On Thursday, we entered the beginning of the end for Putty Puss. Sam, Tracy, and Asp are hunting him down so Sam can arrest him and Screwball is presumably on a hunt to kill. We don’t yet know which one will get to him first (or even if Screwball already got to him).
Blaze seems to have been beaten down, emotionally, farther than she has before and she really is a central character in this storyline.
Characters
We are on Day 32 of this story and 36 characters have spoken or have been referenced in some way. The week just past saw just three new characters who haven’t appeared in this storyline before, another sign that we are getting closer to the midpoint of the story.
T-Bolt re-appeared for the first time in a long time. She has potential to be very important later on.Barney Dhatkham made an appearance two days this week, but he’s almost a prop. He didn’t even have a word to say.Mr. Kleen had a little cameo, but he is also not likely to be crucial to the plot. Maybe he’ll have important duties at the end.
