By the end of the night I should be in the "final 500." Does that count as the home stretch?

The storyline was getting SO good, and now Hugo has completely dropped it and hit rewind by seven years so he can recount the battle of Waterloo in excruciating detail. As far as I can tell, the overall narrative has nothing to do with the battle of Waterloo. This jarring change of focus reminds me of the worst parts about two other 19th century epics: War and Peace and Hunchback of Notre Dame. Hope it picks back up.
