Jenny and Ted discuss Plague 12.x.

Episode Notes:

• Jack missed his calling as a normal non-murderous manager, or maybe as a middle school teacher
• The best we can say about Jack is that maybe he's indifferent to murder
• What if Jack's deepest desire is just to play a lot of Mafia
• Or...to be a novelist?
• This interlude was really the Nine's, not Jack's
• Did Jack make the deal harder for himself before telling the NIne?
• The nuances of the tests
• Jack's fallen into the narrative trap of being too dangerous to our villain-heroes
• The narrative expendability of our various candidates
• The surreality of watching overwhelming violence against people you don't care about
• Imagine the Nine without Jack's control...
• The discomfort of having Mannequin up first
• Cherish could become their person on the inside
• Jenny's looking forward to Noelle being turned loose on these people
• Who wins in a battle of Jack vs. Tattletale?
• We digest some carrots
• Cherish might have enough emotional intelligence to threaten Jack
• Labyrinth = one blorbo spared
• Uh-oh...Regent lifts out...
• Scrub is Jenny's blorbo now
• I guess we can admit that Bonesaw is pretty cool
• We identify the classic Wildbow combat move of sudden violence
• RIP Trainwreck
• Jack might be a tiiiiny bit pretentious
• Would Jack be willing to ship of Theseus the Nine?
