    Standing watch outside the school, Mysta looks around

    Should trouble come to pay a call Honey won’t be found.

    Rather it shall be the one who’s sworn upon her life

    To protect young Honeymoon from danger and from strife.

    Elsewhere, Tracy pays a call on Bribery in prison

    Offer to put in a word is not met with derision.

    Family trees don’t always please. Lafayette’s brother is Adam

    Sprocket took a shine to him. As Susan she soon had him.

    Lafayette, he was the one, as Bribery makes clear

    Ugly Christine’s only beau, ‘twas Austin she held dear.

    Crystal feels that they should meet, she’s never known her father

    Draw the blood and do the test, it really is no bother.

    Elsewhere, criminals clean up on vice in Tracyville

    They’ll have their way and make crime pay. None they will not kill.

    Good morning™, DNA testers!

    Well, Crystal didn’t need much convincing.

    That last frame with Crystal’s image projected threw me off at first. I assume that’s Polar Vortex outlining his plan to Devilia.

    Crystal will need a lot more help in this story than anyone bargained for. Except for Polar Vortex of course.

    Is it just me, or does Kevin Vickers look a lot like Ed McMahon?

    A year and a half after taking down that terrorist in the House of Commons, Kevin Vickers, representing Canada at a ceremony in Dublin commemorating a 100th anniversary of a British/Irish clash, physically removed a protester disrupting the event. Impressive as that was as well, he was worried he might lose his post over that incident because it violated the diplomat’s code of conduct. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/kevin-vickers-protester-dublin-1.3601127

    Using a projector instead of a computer screen… how quaint. (Must be a low-budget operation.)

    Re, Hall of Fame: So a retired Mountie stops a terrorist, and he’s now Ambassador to Ireland. Isn’t that kind of wasting his talents? Well done, Mountie! (Get him our of here…)

    I think Tracy’s introduction of Austin is a bit awkward, but Crystal certainly seems upbeat about learning who her biological father might be. It seems to me the time for person-to-person introduction would be after the fact of paternity had been established rather than before….

    As for Piotr Volkov’s plan, in which Crystal is his “key to success,” I’m still in the dark. But I will bet that it will involve some attempted harmful misuse of her….
