Vicky, I’m leaving. If you ever see this, I’m going back to where we first met. I’ll be able to hole up there for the winter.

Fuck you, Matty.

Dr. Rose Hanson-Holmes, Director 11/30/24

I’m sorry, Dr. Hanson-Holmes. I was doing what was best for me and the animals. For Shredder! Jeff said you would understand, but I understand if you don’t understand.

Respectfully, Matthew Robins

Matthew, I understand that Shredder broke into the house in search of food and found some. The windows are broken, and I can no longer lock the front door.

Give the kid a break. He’s leaving tomorrow morning.

Why not now? Why don’t you both just “return to nature?!”

Dr. Rose Hanson-Holmes, Director 11/30/24

We are caretakers.
