But Riff was about to be compelled to say who destroyed Lysinda... which was Zoe. Exactly. The time can't be coincidental, at least from a narrative standpoint. The timing in terms of right before Riff would have given up Zoe's name was certainly intentional at least on Pete's part if not Torg's. Although, in perfect fairness, Riff probably could have honestly answered that question naming himself, because Zoe only staked Lysinda, while Riff carried her out to be destroyed by the sun. So I can't be certain that Riff wouldn't have named himself under compulsion, but I do feel certain that the scene was meant to carry some implication of Torg protecting Zoe.

Damn, I couldn't imagine Sam getting 'that' mad at a good friend like Torg over someone who isn't even dead yet. Seriously. Also, he doesn't turn around when she's slamming them against walls and they're all screaming, but he does when Torg rushes in.

Epic strip to see upon turning 23 (wait, that rhymed, lol). So, now Torg is going to have to do the one thing he didn't want to do to save the people who did want to do it at first but now don't? Now that's what you call ironic... I think.

I know this will sound horrible... but are we finally [finally!] getting rid of Sam? I'm on #teamRiff on this one I guess. And I suspect Torg will be as well now.
