Chapter 104

Allison talks to a drunk person who has no pants on. It's possible that he remembered seeing Hugo, but it's hard to get a good answer out of him. He mentions "THE UNKILLABLE" and that makes Allison think of an old Hull Family trick, but who knows what that refers to.

And then they get distracted because something, a wierd-shaped person?, walks out of the ocean and starts beating up the fishermen. Everyone is spooked and runs except Allison. She follows him/it into a restaurant and knocks on the door. She hears someone use the name "Dr Manz" and then she opens up the door. That is the end of the chapter.

(If you remember, we met Dr Manz before. He was that doctor with the robots who lived underwater and who tried to heal that fish bite that Hugo got. And he helps people who want to hide from Glenedig. And Hugo had a crush on his voluptous secretary.

Chapter 103

OK this chapter made me a little uncomfortable. Allison decides that she's not going to go home, she's going to keep searching for Hugo. She didn't leave a note for the parents or anything, but it's like punishing them for kicking Hugo out. She gets the feeling that he's in the ocean, or something, so she goes down to the beach. She remembers the time that she almost drowned and Hugo saved her.

She goes and talks to a bunch of crusty pirate-types to try to find info if they've seen Hugo. They give her very bad sass of a sexual nature, and then she does something pornographic that I will not mention. Not sure why she does it. Then she leaves and finds some other guy to talk to.

Chapter 102

In the middle of the night, Allison gets into her car, called THE GORGON, and goes out searching for Hugo around town, at the usual spots where he hangs out. [Obviously she doesn't find him, since we know he's in the other town.]

Then when she's going through the drive-thru to order some chicken, she realizes that this is the first time ever that Hugo is wrapped up in something that she's in no way involved in, and it causes her to shed a few solitary tears.

It's just like George Lazenby at the end of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service." Sorry, I don't know why but I have James Bond on the brain today.
