And I was wrong about Paul not pulling off another stupendous Friday cliffhanger, Unless he does or does not throw us a curve ball, we'll find out if the GG's can survive a nuclear *KA*BLOWIE*. But I suspect's, that Paul's gonna throw us another curveball. My guess is Katherine, pulls a rabbit out of hat.

Oh. Bloody. Hell.

How are they going to Dodge the consequences of that???

On the bright side, Bud will be fine.

Not to worry. I'm pretty sure the girls are tucked safely in Brandi's former bedroom ... ie: Inside Bud's midsection "compartment."

The big problem i see is what happens if Bud achieves escape velocity?

Frederic Brown wrote a short-short about a guy who designed a completely impenetrable personal force field and sneaked into Ground Zero to demonstrate to the military how well it worked.

He was still completely uninjured (but dead of asphyxiation, having used up all the trapped air) three days later when he crashed into the Sun...

And that means we have to wait until Monday to find out what's happened to the girls.

..........stupid weekend.

Yeah, pretty hard to say that the nuclear detonation in the Mexican desert was really just a volcanic eruption. Honest.

Okay, we've officially gone through all four Indiana Jones movies.

That would seem a practical way to resolve this.

... can you get induced radioactivity in golem clay? What would be the half-life of such induced radioactivity?

Bud may end up in a self-imposed quarantine. New story arc on Monday.

So it would appear the bzzzzzzzzztVORP! was a soon to be malfunctioning poit system...

I gotta say it...

Wait for it...

That's gonna leave a mark...

Why Kath!!! You're positively glowing!!!

So the serious music should be Tum..Ta..Tum...Tum??

I was thinking that this situation gives new meaning to the saying "Belly up to the bar[e] and wait out the storm."

That is a detonation, not a melt down. A melt down is really a melt down and it would be heading for the center of the earth. It looks exactly like an ash ejection from a volcano when it clears it's throat. Even to the lightening from the roiling ash. Meanwhile the core is giving the earth a severe heartburn.

Screen fades to black...Music plays softly....Screen fades up on steam and smoke in the air.
The shape of sphinxes slowly appear out of the clouds flying towards two forms lying on a rock above the lava flow.

Cut to credits.....

Oh dear.

Let's hope that Kat finds a sudden "panic-poit" button in herself. She's fully Aski..akse.. thingy x 6, so it wouldn't be too inconceivable that the sheer panic of an impending nuclear explosion triggers some inate, hidden ability.

Bud's belly-hatch could work too, indeed.

Or she and Atsali are vaporized. End of story.

I like the idea of the other two piling into Bud's hatch - and wouldn't that come as a surprise? It makes sense and isn't obvious.

On the radioactivity question, I won't worry about it yet. The ancient-mad-scientist versions of nuclear power have been shown to have no particular relationship to real physics as we know them, so there's no reason to expect irradiation from this blast.

I think somebody will notice the large nuclear explosion at Mapini, and I shudder to think who might show up to investigate. So even if they survived the explosion somehow, they might have another bullet spraying incident to deal with...

ahh, what's the poit anyways? It'll probably be a week of Dietzel ordering pizza or something to keep us guessing...

(whimpers and crawls towards the confusion corner...)

We had Atsali Boo, now Katherine=Katie Kaboom?
