- Great Fairy Godmother Pandora meets Tedd

- "I could call you godmother anyway!"

- She really did tell Tedd to get some sleep (page after the above reference)

- Tearing into a mirror (not literally, of course)

- The bittersweetness of an immortal quoting Star Wars

The complexities of how Tedd feels about Hope relative to what Tedd was hoping for from Pandora are complex.

I was going to make a self-deprecating joke in reference to the redundancies in that sentence along the lines of "I've been reading books on writing," but I can't.

That was fantastic.

The main issue I had with Elliot's face on this page—which sounds like an insult, but let me finish the sentence—was that I wanted to use his expression from panel five in every panel. Just an entire page of shifty eyes and bared teeth. What I wound up with was close to that, but I had to choose one panel for the bared teeth. The awkwardness that was Tedd's mother won.
