I think I may have raised this before somewhere, but I'm not sure about this:
Lindesfarne is shown a series of quills belonging to Princess Chertsey. Without even using any of her equipment, she is immediately able to tell them what the DNA looks like, "down to the last gene." It should go without saying that DNA strands are not visible to the naked eye, or even to a light microscope (one using lenses and normal light). DNA is only "visible" to an electron microscope.
In the previous strip, Rudy rushed off to get "a couple of quills" that Fiona got from Chertsey. The next thing we see is Lindesfarne looking at a sheet of paper with a series of short lines on it. So clearly there's been some kind of timeskip here. And maybe this was just long enough for Rudy to tear the entire page out of Fiona's scrapbook, with much more than "a couple" of quills on it, and they're really short for some reason. Or maybe it was long enough to do more than that. Because "a sheet of paper with a series of short lines on it" is pretty much exactly what a DNA fingerprint looks like.
