Blargh and a half!

The witch escapes again. Well, I suppose they COULD try to follow her and predict the next location, calling on some friends in the know (ANNA ANNA ANNA) to tag along and provide one more person in the hunt. She might be very emotionally unstable, but I think that we need as many people as we can manage. For all we know, Mrs. Heath is a sprinter, too. I would even say to shake Scarlett out of bed and set up a sting or some elaborate, complex, Rube-Goldberg-esque plot to get her.

At this point, anything goes.
The woman is on the lamb, but not out of the woods!

what's the betting there off to Stone Mills! as hey Violet did mention it in her post and there is still space west of perplexcity on Kurt's map

shame 'miranda' got her Oxxypro - i was likeling the idea that she would eventually be outrun by poor limping kurt!

[Juxta]

At this juncture, I'm at rather a loss as to what to suggest, and to whom...

Clearly, Kurt is racing - or at least limping slowly - down a very dark path indeed. I don't know if I'm quite convinced that he has some sort of death wish at this point or if he is simply prioritising this task over and above everything else, his own health included. In which case, should we be looking at trying to safeguard the ongoing health (and lifespan) of our favourite member of the CRT? If so, how? Who, if anyone, will make him see sense?

The other alternative, which is equally likely, is that Kurt simply has to face his demons here. Without following this to it's logical conclusion, he'll never be able to look himself in the mirror again. He realises this, and thus has developed this gritty single-mindedness about him, and he will pursue Miranda to the end, no matter the cost to him personally.

Umm. Much as I hate to say it, because Miranda could provide some rather lovely information if we caught her... would it be worth Kurt's life?

Melodramatic, I know, but I'm getting the rather nasty feeling that that's where things are going.

Even if we passed it onto someone - Anna, even - and told Kurt we had so he could rest up. Or something.


Throwing up ideas as always; obviously Miranda's heading west, though, yeah. Beyond the fact that she's fleeing Kurt and Violet, what's west beyond that next brown square on the map?

And out-of-town sleepovers!

Ok, so Kurt and Violet need some help to catch Miranda. Anna has been mentioned a couple of times, but she's probably not up to the job. How about asking Anna to get Flemming and some of his other volunteer police force friends to help out? He may be reluctant after the last time he helped, but it might just work.

I guess what we need to work out would be the consequences of getting those in blue involved...how much illegal stuff have Kurt and Violet done, and how much inappropriate appropriation of Academy resources. Could we get them banged up or sacked?

Otherwise it seems obvious that they ain't going to catch her on their own. How about getting Scarlett and the Marmalejo College hockey team involved? Hockey teams are scary.

Is there anyone out there who isn't interested in match-making these two? You're worse than Cilla...all of you!

[Juxta]

Yes. Yes, please do

We need to start campaign to get Kurt to ask for help on this. As noted, he's in no condition to catch Miranda on his own. Additionally, he's becoming too single-minded in his pursuit of Miranda. He's admits to having a conversation with himself, but can't even tell himself (in the guise of Miranda) why he's still chasing her. I'm for justice, but this needs to be turned over to the proper authorities so they can put the man-power and resources into it. I'm sympathetic to Kurt's need to capture the woman who decieved and betrayed him, but his pursuit has caused a building to blow up and a woman to be held at knife point. He feels guilt about what has already happened, how much more guilt will he feel when someone in the next town gets hurt because he has not back up? Not to mention who much he'll hurt Violet if he gets himself killed.
