There everybody was, sitting on the various sized cots and murmuring about me and Dave in worried and hustled speech. When they saw us, for the first time in as long as I had known him, Alabaster’s jaw dropped and his eyes opened wide. Weasel paid no attention- he was still trying to open the pickle jar.
Chapter Eighteen: The Arm
“I have no idea,” it replied. “I have a better idea of how I got here, and like I’ve already said, I’ve had a complete memory wipe of anything that happened before my mutations. But I can tell you about the mutation process, if that will satisfy you.
Chapter Seventeen: The Krib
When I awoke, Kaptain Kronk was still babbling on about his favorite childhood pet. There appears to be no stopping him.

Chapter Fourteen: We lift off for somewhere
Weasel started to follow but I explained to him that it was a maze, not just a hall. He pretended to understand and then shot out after Dave through the maze of corridors. The last thing we heard from him was, “I’ve had plenty of practice with mazes.”
Chapter Thirteen: In the Pickle Jar
“This,” proclaimed Dave, “is the great flying pickle jar!”

Dave slithered [...]
