Speaking seriously, we know this will be a flashback chapter about the relationship betwen Surma and Tony. The image on the title page suggests there will be portions in the Forest, as well (perhaps some appearances from Renard, who we haven't seen in a while?).
However, the chapter thumbnail is an airplane - which is strange, because normal airplanes don't fly over the Court's pocket dimension. Perhaps that will come into play as the protagonists of this chapter depart the Court?

"We have to get back, Annie! Back to the past of the future"
"But why, Kat, what's so important?"
"It's your children, Annie, the kids! Quick, hop on my modified hoverbike, we have to hit 89 mph!"
"Wait, wasn't it 88 in that movie you always watch?"
"Golly molly, there's no time for explanations, Annie, just get on, the Lebanese will be here any minute now!"

Perhaps that will come into play as the protagonists of this chapter depart the Court? I'll guess the airplane means it'll be a field trip or similar excursion. Not the Wood. Not at first, anyway. It was formsprung that Anthony met Coyote briefly (and was indifferent) so they'll get there eventually though. If you want to collect insects Gillite Wood is probably not the safest place to be. |

I guess that's the first time an airplane will be seen in the main comic, after all the flying done on the backs of Rogat Orjaks or just through ridiculously maxed out jumping abilities.

Recommended re-reading:
- Ties
- Microsat 5
- Annie and the Fire
Anything else I'm forgetting?

When I saw the airplane, my first thought was "school trip." I don't know why. I just imagined everyone taking a field trip a la Residential and bonding while having crazy camping adventures in the middle of nowhere. I'm sure the reality is quite a bit more dramatic.

How high do you guys think is the likelihood that we'll meet Daniel Schiff again this chapter? 50/50? More?

Was "Get lost." Surma's first words towards Anthony? We can see how they first got along when they were kids and how everyone clicked together. We might get to see Ysengrin from back then too.

Ketrak is that you?
Also, in 1187, the chickcharney is told to get lost. Coincidence? I think not.
Someone is gioing to lose their marbles in this chapter.

What if Tony was sent off on some kind of research project in the forest, and Surma accompanied him as the medium? That could be a good springboard for some quality time. Although I am madly curious to find out how Tony "I suck at being nice to people" Carver managed to win over Surma "I seduce demons for a living" Stibnite, who was dating James "Muscles McPersonality" Eglamore.

Clearly the title refers to how Anthony was the only one that managed to explain everything that went on in the TV series LOST to Surma. In other words, the airplane in thumbnail will crash and the chapter will feature a lot of flashback sequences.

Ysengrin seemed pretty confident that "A. Carver" was Anthony Carver, and that he was up to no good, when Annie left part of her uniform by the Waters. Maybe, we'll discover why.

I kind of suspect the insect is some kind of sophisticated tiny robot like Sky Watcher. It's mostly because of the little thingies coming out of the antennae (denoting movement...or perhaps scanning for something?), but also because I have no other guesses as to why the insect might be significant. Maybe Tony is secretly scared to death of bugs and Surma gallantly rescues him from one's fiendish clutches, jump-starting their fiery romance.

I still look upon that act of Ysengrin's as a great blunder (probably a consequence of Coyote's eroding his sanity); it's clearly part of the Court's school uniform, which means that it doesn't matter which specific person was to blame for it - what matters is that it's potentially a sign of Court interference. By publicly blaming the wrong person, Ysengrin lost the force of his accusation (which then got derailed anyway when Reynardine walked in). "Get lost" could refer to the nature of Gilltie Wood (assuming that much of the story will take place there, as people are hypothesizing) - visitors to such forests usually do get kist ub tgen, Natbe sycg a fate will befall Surma and Anthony? |

The chickcharney was given his original marble by a traveler. That sounds like just the kind of thing that will come back. But we know of someone else who was the original traveller. Confirmed, the chapter will be Ketrak's adventures in Spain. |

Ah, so "Get 'Lost'!" is what he said when she went to the video rental shop and asked which TV series she should get. |
