I’m sure it has a degree of truth in it as well…

Interestingly, she seems to be free of the reality filters that affect so many people in the Narboniverse. Maybe her reporter’s instinct keeps her sharp.”

All I can say to that is to quote Tommy Lee Jones:
“Best investigative reporting on the planet! Go on, read the Times if you want to, they get luck once in a while…”

‘Nuff said, nyao.

Yeah, but it serves to show that the hamsters are not only probably bad news, as had been hinted at, but are definitely very bad news. It’s a nice bit of not-completely-expected black humor that also serves some important story points.

I love it how the last hamster points out that, in light of their casual human dissection, they are going to need to be very careful how they present their plan to Artie. “Gee guys, I don’t have a problem with our being totally heartlessly evil. But think carefully about how the naive, innocent, supergenius is going to react to the more evil details of our master plan when you show it to him, okay?”

A: Noah’s arc! <rimshot>

The good doctor has merely placed an online order and is waiting for delivery; hence he is (in the process of) buying said tapes.  With all the wordiness this week, he would have had time, and he’d be a heel if he didn’t take steps toward giving his newest cohort a solid footing in the language.
