| - | Instead of counting their good fortune and going home to sleep, the trio decides to take advantage of the full moon in favor of putting [[the Bristol Kid]] together again, a seemingly simple endeavor which starts with breaking in to the guillotine room at Madame Tussauds (closest London has to a gallows) and culminates in a dark ritual involving previously obtained Philip parts, cords of mandrake leaves to lash them together, and lots of environmental waxed horror. It is made clear by Albert's occasional bursts of explanations that full-moon-and-mandrake is the chicken-soup of magic, the oldest, commonest and most potent folk-medicine there is. It is also, as is fitting to the field, highly unpredictable. And indeed, just before it gets finally clear whether or not the ritual has worked, the ritualers are surprised by a muttered chatter in french and the sweaty glisten of candle light on wrinkled wax brows, as the old ladies knitting at the guillotine raise their knitting needles and prepare to strike. | + | Instead of counting their good fortune and going home to sleep, as Mike does, the trio decides to take advantage of the full moon in favor of putting [[the Bristol Kid]] together again, a seemingly simple endeavor which starts with breaking in to the guillotine room at Madame Tussauds (closest London has to a gallows) and culminates in a dark ritual involving previously obtained Philip parts, cords of mandrake leaves to lash them together, and lots of environmental waxed horror.
