THE PLOT THICKENS! Now you know why we got bogged down in all this plot explanation, cos it turns out it actually kinda complicated. What could possibly be up with THIS?

(also, who remembers where the IPN was previously mentioned?)

Also, we got at least one more New Voting Incentive, which may or may not be the last one for a while. See, here’s the thing: one of the reasons I didn’t use this story in the main comic is because I kind of couldn’t think of a good ending. If I suddenly DO over the weekend, there’ll be one or two more Incentives after this. If not, well, that’ll be it until some point after Otakon. We’ll see!

(Historical Notes: There was a bit of confusion when this page originally came out regarding Layla not already knowing that this was what Skye was in town for.  It’s not as if Layla made it through the whole Mad Scientist Convention thing without knowing this was what Skye did, after all.  She’s more surprised by Disonar here, what with the plan we’ll hear more about in the next pages…)
