I feel that I should be angry at Gus for wasting a bunch of my time on the car thing. And for making me grieve. But I'm more annoyed with myself for being naive or something. (But then he was so smart and knowledgeable! That made me more or less dismiss my earlier doubts.)
Yeah, I...am somehow not that angry at him for some reason because, well, he was a pretty likable guy. And from what I saw, he wasn't always doom and gloom and making up crises in order to garner sympathy like the other Munchausen I know. I of course feel annoyed for falling for it, but I don't care so much because he was fun.
And maybe this is a quirk of my personality, but I really want to know what really happened here....
Yeah, me too. Just curiosity. I mean, the way he interacted with us, he was clearly a cool enough guy; there was no reason for this elaborate ruse.
Unless P-C and Hec actually do plan to go sleuthing in WI
I hear Matilda has the ability to tell if someone is lying.
Wait, that's Toph.
Unless P-C and Hec actually do plan to go sleuthing in WI, I think we should be expect a lack of verification.
There are ways to lookup who owns certain properties.
Also, I'm planning on driving to Minneapolis in the near future. Cameron, WI is not too far away.

I wouldn't ask anyone not law enforcement to do that. If you want to, then fine, but you shouldn't feel pressured to satisfy the collective Buffista.

Oh, if I did anything like that it'd totally be to satisfy my own curiosity. Also, I imagine there's stuff to find out without actually going to the address and knocking on the door....

Not until he puts on the Robin suit.
City Hall! Public records!
I've been watching too many movies.

I'm not satisfying
your
costume fetish, bub.
Is that the same thing as the Scrappy-Is-Wise/Hawt T-shirt?

There are, but the one I tried, which should include WI, came up empty.
Can I raise a new concern?
I'm really scared this is gonna divide us.
I'm with you, vw. I have been trying to think of a soothing, logical middle of the road post this morning, and I have come up with nothing. The long and short of it is that I am afraid there is no way to satisfy the desire of some to have closure with the desire of others to think the best of people. And as those aren't really opposing desires, I think it is hard to talk people who are of one way of thinking into the other way.
