I missed this one a couple weeks ago, looks like. Looks like Kendra is getting a handle on things. Nothing is certain yet, but at least there are some plans, and some concrete actions being taken. And Marcy seems promising as an ally... and perhaps more *wink wink nudge nudge*. "Brilliantly scathing idea?" - I've been wondering about "brilliantly scathing" for a while, and now it looks like we get an explanation. The grandfather's legacy lives on!
