Jade has entered her grand foyer. She wants to go outside to feed her dog Bec. She also knows that waiting in this foyer is her grandfather. She’s worried about this encounter mentioning it is often intense.

Jade’s home is a weird place, with technologies beyond what we have. But also littered with knights, mummies, faded salon ladies, and taxidermied beasts. We start this scene with a fireplace that’s both purple and gold, with a portrait of Jade in weird golden clothes. I also notice one of the stuffed heads surrounding it is a crude ogre like the one John recently fought. This implies that Jade’s grandfather slew a beast that exists in SBURB at some point.

This area of the foyer contains globes. Also there are distinguished house guests. They appear to be human size dolls. Jade’s grandfather (as she predicted) appeared in front of the fireplace. We see an imposing silhouette. She attempts to dash by his line of sight, but has a nap attack mid leap right in front of him.

And so we cut to Dave- nope that was a psych out.

We get the strife of Jade VS grandpa Harley … it is uhh wow. So tragically it seems Grandpa Harley is very dead. He had himself made into a taxidermy statue with a huge gun. Jade has been alone in that place so long it seems her mind is gone. She “fights’’ her grandpa with a series of imaginary attacks. Some which involve taking his hat or just napping like a cat on the fire hearth. The collimating into an argument. Jade suggests that her grandfather would prefer she take his big gun and not her rifle. She gets upset and leaves suggesting he was easier to deal with when he was alive. Jade is now at least outside, but damn that really was intense.

We go now to the Peregrine Mendicant (PM). They had been rocketing through the sky in a giant fruit shaped pod thing. But PM messed with a terminal which exploded, leaving a giant hole in the side of the craft. They survived this though they’ve lost a few mailboxes and are slightly on fire. One of the metal worms spares the mailbox containing the letter.

Rose is in a Laboratory near her house. She’s found a very out of place bedroom set for little girls. It also has an adorable 4 eyed kitten. Next to this she finds an appearifier. This one is a bit different then the one found by a wayward vagabond years in the future. The console is more like an arcade machine. It’s weirdly already dialed into a time 9 years earlier when Rose was about a toddler. She attempts to appearify her cat Jasper, but as this is a paradox she only gets sludge. But unlike the one WV found, this machine takes things further. The machine attempts to clone Jasper using the sludge material. It is an abomination. Rose points out this is an attempt to perfect the science of Ectobiology. Ecto meaning external, though often associated with ghostly things. The study of external, or ghostly life? Also this is John Pesterchum handle.

Rose recalls the moment playing on the screen. Jasper tells her a secret before dissaperifying. Present Rose didn’t make that happen. He would be dead by a river sometime later. The machine isn’t able to reveal what had happened to him during the time he was gone. Apparently Japser could talk and was wearing suites even before he died?

Rose uses the machine to track where Jasper had been after his death. This animation hints that the new 4 eyed kitten she found was a more successful attempt to close Jasper. This was maybe triggered when Rose dumped his body onto a transportalizer. In the centre of the lab. This animation has a hidden easter egg, featuring Maplehoof. It is important because maplehoof is in it. With 10 seconds left on the clock Rose decides to retrieve her dead cat, as well as the clone kitten. Not the abomination she made prior, that’s just left in a test tube. She escapes via the transportalizer just in time
