When the visitors protest the inhumane solution, the mayor assures them that the Denizens of the Car had already tried everything else- brick walls, corks, glue- and the only thing that works is someone’s finger. “Everything good in this world comes with a price” - for the Car to be a paradise, ''someone'' will need to be sacrificed. But not only is it [[FridgeLogic already hard to believe]] that there is ''nothing'' in an infinite chain of pocket worlds that could help this situation, but it takes Titus about 15 seconds to come up with a solution that might work in Waspinator’s regenerating limbs.

Even ''worse,'' the latest “town hero,” Kenny, was ''well aware'' of Waspinator from his time in the Apex. He didn’t even ''mention'' the possible solution because [[TheAtoner he’s so desperate to atone]], and [[MartyrWithoutACause he believes that you can’t atone without suffering for it]].

* TheAtoner: Deconstructed with Kenny. His need to 'do things right' traps in him in a spiral where he all but refuses to give himself any break or relief, since it would be him either being selfish or giving up before he'd truly made things right.
* TheBusCameBack: Phryne Fisher and Jane Ross reappear in this car.
* CircularReasoning: Between guilt and delirium, Kenny is stuck in this mindset.
* ImagineSpot: Chloe's Eevee imagines herself as Gigantamax Eevee-bus, with her tail knocking down a tower full of bricks.
*ShoutOut:
** A pretty clear one to "Literature/ThoseWhoWalkAwayFromOmelas".
** Kenny's scenario is based on the WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder episode "The Hole Lotta Nuthin".
** Mothdron is taken from VideoGame/DewysAdventure.
* StylisticSuck: The radio show the former Apex put on. That's ''not'' how you're supposed to use adjectives, Toby.
