From what the miner said, may I assume Alexander has done this kind of thing before? Doesn't seem he learned anything from the last time...

That was both a better ending and take away than the ballad of John Henry.

Oh my god that little twerp. Someone give him a laxative.

Paula is in fine form, as always.

bravo bravo you've made a nice piece of work here

You do quality work. There's no real other way to say it. It may have been rather short, yes, but that does not detract from the quality. I may not be quite sure how it fits into the story as a whole, but it was a nice diversion that, while not quite as comical as some of the earlier installments, was a lighthearted slice-of-life moment, and gives us a little more atmosphere/world building perspective. I approve.

Also did anyone else get a John Henry vibe from Paula's pick axes vs. the jackhammer?
