Episode 224 Runaways (2017) #4: "Find Your Way Home pt IV"
Episode 231
Sunday, 1 November, 2026
It is time to dive back into the Runaways! And boy, are we excited. This is the 2017 Rainbow Rowell run, and it is great. Plus, there is Power Pack content. Which means we can review it. Which is why we are here. This paragraph just turned into a snake eating its own tail. Changes have occurred with the Runaways. Chase went back in time to get Gert, Victor has been reduced to just his head, and Molly is living with her Grandma. The team is split up, and they are all trying to pull back together. And that is the fertile ground that the writer is playing in. I guess we should get a head of this story. Or talk about the head. It is the elephant in the room, if the elephant was a decapitated noggin. If an elephant is a head cut off from the body, then zoos would be terrifying. Why would you do that? Ok, now I am stuck on the idea of elephants equaling detached heads. If this is true, do the heads automatically turn into the size of elephants? Do they sound like elephants? Do they turn grey and do their noses stretch? Why am I down this rabbit hole? How did rabbits get into this conversation? Did rabbits turn into elephants since elephants are heads? Oh, my head. Why did I start typing this so early in the morning? I think I need to lie down. Wait, I need to refocus. Back to the Runaways and their new situation. For Molly, this is great. A loving and stable adult figure, a good school life, new friends, and her old family/friends. This is great. Nothing could go wrong. It is not as if she lives in a fictionalized world that is run by conflict and plot. I mean, look at that perfect bedroom. That is wonderful, clean perfect. And there is a Power Pack poster. Also, no elephants around. Not a one. There is a head, which may be an elephant, we are not really sure. The only other thing I can say about this issue is that there are way too many cats present. That is a problem. We need to resolve that quickly. Make it happen. Please. And do not replace them with elephants.
