To me, this is a nice finish to this arc. Bensington is exposed for his low tastes and we learn more about magic Mexican realism.

I love you.

I love where this ended up.  In the corner, with the know-thy-death ketchup.  Damn that stuff is tacky!

Even if I had not already loved this arc, the plaintive little hematite going "awooo" would have won me over. Beautiful. Simply beautiful.

So Edison was trying to make ketchup that bestows a feeling of melancholy?
I wouldn't buy that product. I need my condiments to be uplifting and life-affirming.

What exactly would you call this form of old timey science...converting a substance through proximity to certain rare minerals, yet not combining them...it's not alchemy, what is it?

and yes, awooooo is the best part.

Much love for the Singapore Sling, by the way. The drink with a million forgotten ingredients and Cherry Heering.

If you'd ever been to Florida, you'd know.

Everything there is a total Hunt's move.
