    I thought the “lightning bolt” was just a shiny surface reflection of the surrounding light. I presumed he was talking about bringing the lit tower back to life. There could have been a bomb at that point, but I’m not sure yet.

    The company that made those cakes went bankrupt, but the trademarks and other assets were sold off to another company that resumed making them.

    This is what I was suggesting a few days ago about PTSD. At least, it’s close to that with the stress and becoming a loner and researching disturbing things.
