Oops... I forgot about that one. Too much on my mind, I guess...

Still, they may have been planning this for a while, and she was merely the last one invited, chronologically, which would have turned out good for Tina, seeing the context of her dream. That, or Monica figured if Tina needs a break and needs to talk, maybe the others need to do so as well, and planned from there.

Don't mind me, I have no idea what I'm talking about... Any room left in the confusion corner?

Now, if there's anyone for Atsali to speak to about one's looks, and real problems they may cause, it's Medusa's sister, maybe even Medusa herself.

I don't think they was any planning about Tina. I think Monica grabbed her and dragged her to the beach. The party may have been planned previously but for a different reason. There are too many people there for a spur of the moment gathering. Especially as I doubt the kids would be allowed to skip school for it by Kathy. So there was a different purpose for this party than Tina. I think the trope is the reason for this arc. Get everyone back in play. Tidy up details. Drop hints on us. Drive some of us crazy going huh? What!? When did that happen!!?? Now wait a minute! I'll be in the corner, whimper.

Uhm, the timing of this party is in the evening, CDT, back in Minneapolis. The island is in morning-time, so it only looks like it's early in the day.

Time zones differences can be real useful when you can tele-port/wormhole anywhere on the globe.

Glad to see I just might not be completely crazy, after all... ;)

That would make sense... therefore, it most probably is not the case, right? :P

Got it in one. Paul enjoys leading us down one path, then yanking the rug out from under our feet, and then letting us pratt-fall on our faces. But we know this is going to happen so it isn't as painful anymore. Nr are we embarrassed by being wrong either! We will proudly proclaim ur best guess anyway right!?

"Prat-fall on our faces"?

Difficult, as the prat is anatomically opposite the face...

Especially the way agent Pratt is built. :twisted:

Personally, I likely wouldn't complain if Pratt fell on MY face but I'd rather she fall into my lap. ;)
