The fabulously colored Toucan (you know, pale orange beak, black and white body and gray feet) followed them all the way to the Ruins as Mark continues to explain away the obvious fact that Cherry looks for opportunities to NOT be with her husband… the inveterate Man-splainer…

Sure you do, Mark, and there is no hiding the fact that Cherry will often leave you to your own devices given her natural instincts toward self-preservation!  This time it seems that she wanted Rusty to go as well… even if there is slight collateral damage in the form of this Mara-girl…

the look on Dr. Carter’s face is priceless… Not only is he disappointed that Cherry didn’t make the trip, but now he has to suffer inane questions from children, and finger wagging from Mark…
