Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I tried to find the gigantor storm on my weather bugs radar thingy and saw nothing. Although, we are under a wind advisory 'til 7 pm and I do think that the temperature has dropped a bit since this morning.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Looks like a big-ass front already went through and is now over Lake Michigan. But we're supposed to get more, so maybe Gigantor (who is a space-age robot at your command) is still around the corner....

How large of an area does your weather bug cover? If you're looking at a local radar map, it won't show a cloud in the sky. It's only when you zoom out that you'll see storm that's covering, like, eight states.

Crapcakes! I forgot that I had a mandatory meeting this morning. Maybe they'll have more coffee there...

But it's all to the west and north - I thought that Gigantor was coming from the southwest and moving northeast.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is it wrong that I want a big cookie for lunch?

I think it would be wrong if you didn't.

Depends on the kind of cookie.

It would only be wrong if it wasn't one of those big cookies WITH FROSTING.
