A Pyrrhic victory if ever there was one. -
I still think that Kevin, being newly and unintentionally sentient, simply has not learned any manners. He (?) somehow knows English, and about Magic, but those things could have been given him by Arthur when he was created. Which brings up another idea: Perhaps Kevin is what Arthur would be without socialization. Perhaps Arthur copied his knowledge, but not his social graces, into Kevin. They both demonstrate a certain ruthlessness.

I remember that distinctly. I'm pretty sure a theremin was played as an audio effect when he used that power. -
I was about to blame his "father," but Arthur never intended Kevin to be sentient. His intelligence and personality are emergent properties. He's effectively a newborn, there's no reason for him to be anything but an infant, emotionally. It will be interesting to see if Kevin is capable of learning how to play nice.
-
I'm glad of the clarification; there was some ambiguity. So "Accepted!" with regard to Sarah means "I agree to take you on as a student." Kevin will do, I suppose, as a substitute for the temporarily unavailable Pandora. Should be interesting, hilarious even, if she shows up and disagrees with Kevin's teaching style.

He may know that Tedd is in some way similar to Arthur, but not have the concept of "Seer." Arthur thought himself to be simply a wizard with a quirk, when he create Kevin.

Comic book time is something that even Einstein couldn't explain. -

Maybe. The FBI in our world doesn't have to deal with Giant Flying Turtles over New Mexico or other-dimensional worlds. At least, I think they don't. I was more thinking about the magical doorways shown in this comic. -

At a guess, Arthur doesn't need to fly commercial when he's on official business. -

Experience has shown that Dan and I simply don't think alike, but I would guess that Edward has a lot of frustrations, personal and professional, on his plate just now. His organization is largely paralyzed by the change in Magic, his ex-wife kept a major secret from him while they were married, whatever the Flying Turtle Creature told him (I'm confused by the timeline, did that happen before or after the meet with the Griffins?), having to leave the conversation about Tedd's lab (ditto), and now, he absolutely has to involve a civilian in his first diplomatic contact with an alien species, with no proper back-up from his agency. His concern for Nanase's well being is almost certainly only a part of his problems. I don't blame him a bit for not wanting to multiply his difficulties by involving his niece as well as his son's best friend. Let's hope the Griffins aren't offended by Nanase's and the rest of Charlotte's Scooby Squad's absence. -

Grace's dreams bring up the question of how she would, um, reproduce. Edward was of the opinion that she could get pregnant while in her human form, implying that she could not while a humanoid squirrel. Damian and perhaps Dr. Sciuridae, were of the opinion that she might have inherited the ability to produce a Uryoum egg by herself. I wonder if she would have to be in her half-squirrel for to do that. -
Skorts?

I suspect that Ellen's unique "birth" and second life experience forced her to think about herself, her situation, and how she was to fit in the world. Introspection, to her, would have been as necessary as breathing.

Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth is a character in Futurama who tends to precede bad news with a cheery "Good news, everyone!" Given that the 160-year-scientist oscillates between genius and senility on a regular basis, it's difficult to tell whether this is due to malice or misjudgement. Should you ever decide to watch TV, Futurama would be an excellent show to start with.

What do you suppose the fraction of "eligible" males is? Some fraction will have steady dates, some will be gay, some will have removed themselves from the dating pool for other reasons. Some might even be interested but feel themselves out of those particular girls' league. Could four girls date a majority of the remainder? -

Think drug or other contraband possession, too. The Rules of Evidence are simply not set up to account for miracles. -

Imagine Amanda being assigned to teach Tedd how to keep a proper lab notebook. -

Tedd has to know that he's not being told everything, he knows that his own father (of necessity) doesn't tell him everything. -

"Nearly all of [the app icons] are useless." I wonder what the apps that aren't just window dressing are good for? -
So Arthur is going to jumpstart the development of a technology that terrifies him because the alternative frightens him even more. I wonder how many of the participants in the Manhattan Project felt the same way?
-
Here. It bugs me that Tedd hasn't tried to quantify Cheerleadra's power. Some of the powers, like Charm would be difficult to put numbers on, but weights are fairly easy to improvise. Magical Resistance would be interesting to look at, too. How many points does she need to resist Ellen's FV5 beam?
-
This actually makes sense. In comic book terms, anyway. Or maybe in D&D terms. Lawful Good becomes Chaotic Evil. The idea of Chaotic Evil Cheerleadra is somehow both terrifying and sexy at the same time. Especially if she has 28 factorial points to work with.
