Possibly the last thing Henson expected.

What's this?! An actual happy conclusion where Henson goody-two-shoes' nature is vindicated??? Heh, I kid, Aja. This page made me smile. After all the crap that's gone down, these guys needed a win... both Henson AND Richard especially, I suspect.

And to answer your question, yes, was thankfully able to save all the critical files before the hard drive died. It was touch-and-go for a while--computer took half an hour to boot up and the copy process was slow, but mission successful!

Devlin, I personally don't think we've seen the last of Spike and his new flesh-Bentley. Maybe he'll pop up again when the Big Bad is revealed.

Been pondering themadpsychologist's ideas, and I suspect it's not so much the cut itself that he's being evasive about. We readers got a few hints about Richard's past that Henson doesn't know about yet. I think Richard was remembering some of Spike's remarks in that moment when he's fingering the cut, or possibly some specific events that we don't know. If that's the case, I'm fine with a trickle reveal. Richard doesn't need to give up ALL his secrets yet, and it makes him more interesting.

But if he IS a new host, then I'm even more terrified because that means Spike's an even better actor than we thought!
