3.34 - The Light of a Firefly • Breaking the Spell • A World Where Alarm Clocks Ring in the Morning.
Beautiful mystical chapter with wild, otherworldly answers. Kumiko fading in and out and Toru Okada unexpectedly reveiling himself as a veritable Orpheus. Here, in Room 208, he actually becomes the hero…
Quite a few Twin Peaks-The Return associations. Again.

3.30 - Malta Kano’s Tail • Boris the Manskinner
Was hoping to hear more from Malta and Creta Kano, and okay, it’s but a dream. Still they tend to communicate through dreams, don’t they. I refuse to discard it for now.
On the other hand, the Manskinner is someone I hoped never to hear from again and his return comes as as much of a shock as it does to Mamiya…
