I had a Charlie McCarthy dummy — until it finally got strung up with tangled magnetic recording tape in the rafters of a rental house, complete with ratty wig. Don’t ask …. it was strange times.
Welcome back, and I wish you all the best for a healthy future!So, as far as the plot goes …. I assume the ‘suits’ prepared for universe-transferring entities were not quite ready in time, so the result is less than hoped for ;) (Or, as put by another, “{Did you say the words right this time} … Well, maybe I didn’t say every tiny little syllable, no, but basically I said them … yeah … basically…” — Ash, Alternate Universe/Time Traveller).
I believe it means we will rejoin the action via a loop to https://www.gocomics.com/endtown/2020/04/03 once Aaron is feeling better (get well soon Aaron — all the best wishes for your health and ease!). Interestingly, if we were to take a clue from that comic, there will be another breakthrough in the current version of reality by someone also overloading the recorder, etc. Maybe they will loop back onto themselves – sort of like getting trapped in a “transporter loop” on ST!
