WOW! Freed yourselves from the quantum world!!!!! That implies they are no longer connected to the demon realm and might not be demons anymore. Another step on their path to evolving.

Now why is Bia helping the process. She entered their dream state, or a local quantized internal space, just to pass that message along. Might she be seeking a path the connect more to Shelly, or a way to influence Shelly? She has to know that Shelly is friends with Tina. That last comment really implies strongly that Bia may be the real reason Tina came into being. Wouldn't it be wild if Jin was being manipulated by Bia all along? Maybe Maya was as well. Hard to tell.

Run and hide, run and hide. But why the bathtub? Although I will admit the tub does have a back door escape path and it is usually the safest place during Tornadoes and drive by shootings.

Wait...WAS it a dream? Or is Bia just f#%king with Tina? Someone mentioned the Borg queen yesterday, and this seems like something she would do...

But I'm happy to see that even though they are demons inside Tina,, some are same enough to go hide in the bathroom after something like that!

I don't know... If I horked up a tentacle like that I'd be damn well positive something demonic was in the air.

Seroiusly though... It appears "Tina's" demons are still with us and still in charge of the ship... I believe that their punishment is over and their memory caps have been lifted... Maybe we can find out more about Tina now and what went on with her. I have to wonder though, have Tina's demons ever met Monica outside of Tina's body? If the memory cap has been lifted, and the memories are flooding back, Tina needs to definitely put a call in to both Monica and Phix to report what's happened. I'm getting a vibe that makes me fairly certain that Phix knows this had a good chance of happening and will help Tina through the transition.

OK will happen, but not yet. Gotcha. Love it, Tina is high on my list of favorite characters. Behind Shelly but ahead of Dietzle.

I doubt it. She probably went Octal.

Tina has done that before so it is nothing new. Remember the firedrill of demons getting back into Tina for the pizza delivery?

As to getting their memory back I kind of doubt it. The memories were taken by the demon world. If they've freed themselves from the Demon world then how can they get their memories back? I kinda doubt the demons would be nice and return them.

Yes those demons did meet. At the time of Monica's bus accident. Tina's demons caused the car to hit the bus and helped block Monica's soul from leaving. It was the hurt to Tina that got them punished. It was never really clear who set that up though. Hints are Jin had a hand in it, but it might be others as well.

Yes, Bia is trying to find Unimatrix Zero.

Aaargh, what the heck is going on... Here I was, thinking Tina was getting a 1up mushroom or something, but now it seems everything is back to normal.

Could someone A) explain to me what confusion corner is and B) give me directions to there? Because that is obviously where I belong right now.

I believe Tentacle wants to hide in the bathtub because she is generally aquatic in nature. The octopus arm is kind of a giveaway.

So, does being free from the quantum world mean the demons can now move into the human physical world in physical form as they choose? Not just floating apparitions but real flesh and blood beings? I'm not sure even Monica's demons can do that.

I don't think it was a Dallas dream but Bia catching Tina while she was in her "resting" state and creating a dream-like state while she did whatever she just did to her.

Even more ominous, I don't think the "get to work" thing was about the coffee shop, but was about getting to work for Bia. Doing what ever Bia just set the demons up to do. Maybe abandon ship for the real world?

A) Confusion Corner is "where" those of us who are without clues gather. I had always assumed it was a cozy nook inside of Mucho Mocha (Tina's coffeeshop), but with all the upgrades performed there over the past few months (thanks to certain inventive Forumites) I don't even know anymore.
B) Wherever you go, there you are.

We all carry a bit of Confusion Corner with us, wherever we are, in our befuddled little hearts....minus the snacks, darn it.
