Okay, I think I figured out what’s been bugging me.
Pomni essentially stumbled upon a potential cure for abstracting… and does nothing with it. No second try, no explaining what she was doing to the others, nothing. Just never get addressed. Hell, just go back into the weird mind place and tell Jax, “dude, just come back with me and you can do this to get Kaufmo and Ribbit back”. Don’t want to tell Kinger you potentially found a way that he can have his wife again? No?? Nothing???
Unironically, I think the show actually needed like two more episodes to flesh some of this stuff out so it doesn’t feel so rushed through.
