Back on Chapter 6 Page 6, the Good Morning Pinfall hosts mentioned “the vigilante stalking the streets since winter”. So yeah, it’s been a couple of months.

There are other reasons to steal a chimp from the zoo. Based on everything else I’ve seen about the guy, my money’s on “thought it would be funny.”

to be fair a couple members of the Dark Circus did survive the encounter on the record (and a good amount more survived off of it)

Like regular Mustard but Goth

Honestly, the way Mustard is acting, I expect her to go off the deep end in the sanity department more than the morality department. Every time she talks she seems nearly hysterical.

As for McBell, she acts dumb and carefree, but has shown herself to care strongly about what really matters morally when it comes down to it. I strongly suspect she’s really at the auction to figure out what is going on there, and “stealing stuff” is only her cover, though she might decide later that stealing stuff is actually a good course of action.

Even if Junior is just stringing her along? Traumatizing him is a public service.
