When last we left our heroes...
Piss, Lithium, and Yarb had exited stage left and were headed to the Piss Pot. Somehow, they encountered an alien and were doing battle.
Want took the children and headed to the Piss Pot as well. Carlos had no interest in any of this shit, and also made way towards our stalwart (maybe?) home. We see a cut scene of Duke, back at Live Oak, making his way out of the forest. After he approaches Trish, and gets the cold shoulder, the noir block zooms in on his face, we see his new emerald green eyes, and or first hint that things aren't what they seem anymore.
As Yarb, Piss, and Lithium (and Want who eventually found the trio) are fighting the alien, Duke pulls up and they defeat him together. Perky Dan and two other kids were pulled into the vortex; Want tried to lay the blame on Lithium. After the pleasentries are exchanged, and Piss prances his victory over the alien to the surroundings crowd, the group makes their way back to the PP.
On arrival, the shit moat is examined to ensure its viscosity. Maple sure has been gone a long time reinforcing our shit-oriented defenses. Carlos had already arrived and had started to give orders to the Harlots.
My mind is having trouble filling in the gaps. I remember Want actualizing a Feather-Rex, and creating a divide in the Mossmen in the 10,000 Maniacs between loyalists to Piss and those who were only there to serve the cause. Also, Want and Duke had some tension as Duke was beginning to see through Want's charade.
Carlos went ahead to the Piss Pot and found the surrounding forest crawling with scouts from the Railyard in containment suits (since they're always scared of infection). He snuck into the Piss Pot, chatted with Legs and Trunkman, and then met up with the group on their way back. The party was able to take out the guys in the woods without too much trouble and captured a guy to interrogate.
