She's right, the room is really creepy. It also sounds like Kat has brought up escape attempts with Annie before.

I know, Parley - isn't it weird??!!
It looks like Kat's been trying something - and Annie isn't really keen to go along with it. Go easy on your friend there, Kat.

She's right, the room is really creepy. Although less creepy than when I thought it was just the hallway for cells in a loony bin or prison. Pretty sure Annie could "escape" any time she wanted to by walking out the door. No, Kat & co. has something far more insidious in mind: they are going to Find Out Stuff.

A) Yay Parley and Smitty!
B) I really hope that Smitty's order-from-chaos ability doesn't actually end up enforcing Anthony's will. Anthony is a very orderly person.

I get the very sinister feeling that the thing Kat is "up to" will be the thing they've been up to all along, solving the mystery of divide. However, all too conspicuously, Annie suddenly thinks it's a bad idea to get involved.

From the look on Andrew's face, I almost expected him to go hug Annie.

I find it very unlikely that Kat would worry about Jeanne and the divide when several of her best friends are in that much trouble (let's not forget Renard). No, she is planning something that is going to make that chapter earn its title and I'm really happy about that.

This...Wouldn't be a plan to get Anthony out of his residence so Parley and Smit can BIP in and liberate Rey, is it?
JAILBREAAAAAAAK!

Yay, these guys!
Maybe they're planning a raid to steal back Rennard.

Yay, it's these guys! Parley won't be one to mince her words at least.
And Kat has a plan!
You do have a plan don't you Kat?

"Kat, don't tell me you're still set on having Parley teleporting inside my father's house and assassinating him!"
"Aw, Annie, she's already got a disguise and everything!"

I think Anthony has control over Annie's time management, and would be furious if he found out that Annie went somewhere without his knowledge or approval. I don't think she's locked in physically, but, you know. I think you're right about Kat. That's her greatest weapon, and bringing all the stuff Anthony did and does to light... it could be way more destructive to Annie's image of her father than anything he does right now.

Yup. And this may have been part of Kat's plan all along. Parley is the only one of those Annie would let in and won't dismiss, who can be expected to plainly ask "what the hell is this?" right away. Peat, meet thermite. I get the very sinister feeling that the thing Kat is "up to" will be the thing they've been up to all along, solving the mystery of divide. However, all too conspicuously, Annie suddenly thinks it's a bad idea to get involved. Annie in her "eager to serve puppy" mode probably doesn't want to do something that doesn't directly go against the letter of Anthony's orders (probably because no one in right mind or anywhere within artillery range of it would think of such contingency without knowing something Kat does and Tony doesn't), but would obviously go against the spirit. And she can't refuse outright either because she sees another obligation there (which may be simply because they are her friends) or because after classes and Anthony's brief visit she feels like a wrung out rag and not in a good enough shape to argue seriously.

Now what's all this, then? I can only assume Smitty and Parley are here to assist in the dinner get-together preparations. I can't think of any other reason they would need to meet with Annie, or any reason Annie would hang out with friends outside the preapproved 'hang out with friends' time block. This should have been cleared with the front desk.

They are taking Annie to get her hair done (what is left of it). That straight cut and straight comb just will not do for the Donlan's party. Anthony told Annie to make sure she was ready and he failed to restrict what getting ready means.
Two by the ways...
1. Parley and Smitty are also wearing clothing that indicates cool weather (Parley's turtleneck sweater at least). But we still don't know how much time has passed since Anthony's reappearance.
2. There is your door handle (and observation port). In the future Reynard's symbol will be drawn in excruciating detail.

Yay, these guys! Maybe they're planning a raid to steal back Rennard. Actually... Renard is not cooperating with Mr.A, so probably he's just dormant in his doll-like shape. How hard it would be to switch him for an ordinary toy? Tony doesn't look very ether-savvy. Without equipment at least.

I like how previously it was only Smit who could trigger teleportation on cue. It appears that Smit & Parley and co are improving their control.

"Kat, don't tell me you're still set on having Parley teleporting inside my father's house and assassinating him!" "Aw, Annie, she's already got a disguise and everything!" It consists of a name tag that reads "Pre-approved Rule-Following Peer. Legit." Guaranteed to pass robot scrutiny. I imagine, Annie would currently oppose liberating Rey or investigating her father. They may be there to merely visit a friend, which might be more productive in the long run.

Just been loving Kat's faces so far. Everyone is looking pretty well dressed besides Annie. If Parley is sneaking around then hopefully we get to see Reynard soon.

I can't imagine that more than a few days have passed, because: the card makes more sense a short time after the event of Annie cutting her hair Anthony wouldn't wait weeks to test Rey's "cooperation" and start asking questions about it Kat is totally burning to DO something and I don't think she'd wait long to call the cavalry and let Smitty and Parley know about the situation and try to bring her parents in.

Although I like to imagine Rey's non-cooperation as a little bit more vocal. Somebody needs to tell Anthony what people think of his parenting skills, and frankly, who better?
