Wendy Master of Art

Somewhere in a Berlin club, Wendy explains that she applied for a Master of Fine Arts program in Hell, Ontario to a nudist couple. The next day, she wakes up to find out that she was accepted into the University of Hell masters program. Taking a taxi to the town, she goes for a walk and finds herself in a local bar where she meets Yunji and Eric, and reunites with Maya. After getting drunk alongside her new peers, Wendy wakes up hungover only to find out that she was late for her first day of class.

Wendy arrives to class late, where she meets the remainder of her classmates. Wendy and a couple of her peers drive to Toronto, where Wendy and Maduhri attend an art show. During the show, Wendy meets Xav, who was at the event to support his partner, Rosa. Wendy, feeling overwhelmed by the amount of attention, steps outside briefly where she has a conversation with Xav. Rosa introduces herself, holding hands alongside another woman, which Wendy understands as a polyamorous relationship between Xav and Rosa. Wendy's conversation with Xav is interrupted with Eric hurrying her to leave. The next day, Wendy presents her first studio visit, where she displays a work entitled Lacan's table. Her professor reacts poorly, and Wendy heads to the university bar to drink. She meets with Yunji, who shows her an artist whose work reminded her of Wendy's, this statement moves Wendy, but it is cut short when Yunji asks whether the cows on campus could be milked. Later, Wendy heads to Toronto to meet with Xav, who admits that there is space for Wendy to join the relationship. Two months pass, and Wendy is calling with Winona, having entered into Xav's relationship. Wendy's plans with Xav are cut short with Xav when he mentions that he intended to be with Rosa that day, discomforting Wendy. In an attempt to distract herself, Wendy looks at the other work by her peers, but winds up snapping at Yunji, upsetting her. Wendy leaves to party and drink, and a hungover Wendy calls Xav for advice. Wendy reconciles with Yunji and tries a new outlook on life, but is clearly upset when Xav mentions Rosa, breaking down after she hangs up. Wendy begins her final critiques, where the guest critic tells Wendy to see things as they are offering themselves. After a celebratory party for passing the final critique, Wendy wakes up in a daze and is called by Xav, before the call ends, Wendy breaks up with Xav.

Wendy starts her first day of teaching undergraduate students. Kaylee, a student of Wendy's, confronts her at the end of class with a question that Wendy struggles to answer. Wendy divulges her struggles to Maduhri, who reminds Wendy to consider how she was in her undergraduate years. Wendy flashes back to her time partying with Tina and Screamo, remembering that Screamo gave her reassurances that she would be successful in ten years. Later on, Winona comes to Hell to visit Wendy, the two struggle to make conversation and Winona feels sidelined having been removed from the personal context of the masters program to understand the discussions Wendy has. Sandy, visiting from Toronto, gives a guest lecture at the university and follows the students to the bar. Feeling uncomfortable with Wendy's dismissal, Winona heads out to smoke, where she is approached by Maduhri who tries flirting with her. Winona heads home in frustration with Wendy's behavior while a drunken Wendy calls Xav at three in the morning as she tries to find her way home. Waking up to a disgruntled Winona at the foot of her bed, reminding her that she had a class that day. Realizing it was three in the afternoon, Wendy hurries to class and vomits repeatedly as her students present their assignments. Wendy contacts Xav and apologizes for her actions, but their conversation devolves into an argument. An hour later, the two try to reconcile, but Xav agrees with Wendy's proposal to do things on their own and the two end the call discomforted. During office hours, Kaylee asks about her marks on an assignment, Wendy tells her that she has choices but her subsequent question leaves Wendy crying. After her final critique, Wendy runs into Kaylee at a bar, who tells her friend that Wendy inspired her as an artist. A sobered Wendy contemplates reaching out and apologizing to Xav and Winona, but struggles to.

By the Five Roses Flour sign in Montreal, Wendy reconnects with Tina, Jeff, and Screamo. Wendy steps aside with Tina for a conversation, where Wendy shares her struggles with Xav. Tina reveals that her relationship with Jeff is dysfunctional, and hurriedly calls him after a brief conversation. Wendy messages Winona, who brushes her aside for another day. Wendy seeks therapy, and while initially dismissing the advice given to her, expresses her feelings in art by means of a sad clown painting. Winona talks with her mother regarding her frustrations with Wendy, her mother shares that Winona is the type to hold grudges and that she needs to speak up on how she feels, which causes a realization within Winona. While working on her master's thesis, Wendy speaks with Maya regarding her frustrations. Maya remarks that the two of them will leave the school forever in a year's time, and Wendy finds the inspiration to complete her thesis.

Wendy is searching for apartments in Toronto, and struggles to find one with livable conditions. She runs into Yunji and Maduhri, who help her find a date. After a few statements that discomfort her, she runs into Xav and Wendy ends the date to visit him. Running into him alongside his partners, Wendy gets cold feet and returns to the studio. She runs into Eric, who admits he salvaged Wendy's work because he benefited from watching her progress. Wendy presents her thesis defense and becomes a master of art. During the after party, Wendy is greeted by Winona and the two reconcile. Waking up, she finds an offer for an apartment and envisions a future with Xav, she accepts the offer and runs into Xav on the bus. She shares the news with Xav, and the two muse that they have time to work things out as Wendy is now a resident.

Development

Scott developed the character of Wendy between 2009 and 2011 following his time at Concordia University. The character was first drawn in a placemat, and was intended to be a "non-thing" divorced from his art practice. Scott then posted the character on his Facebook page where it received positive reception. Scott would then continue with several more illustrations for an acquaintance's fashion zine. Wendy's narrative began to expand following the creation of the zine, as Scott would develop Wendy's friends and relationships. Beginning with Tina and Jeff, Scott then expanded on their personalities.

Winona was created as a character Scott spoke as someone he would create whether he wanted to or not, she was to bring in another aspect that viewers would not expect. Screamo was partially inspired by Scott's friend, Jonas Arahkwénte Gilbert.

Scott cites Matt Groening's Life in Hell as an influence for his work, appreciating its cartoony appearance contrasting with the bitter themes that it presented. Scott, speaking with David Balzer, mentioned that he inadvertently may have absorbed the characteristics of the portrayals of similar characters in contemporary pieces of media such as Girls and 2 Broke Girls. Lauren Fournier writing for Vancouver's Access Gallery notes the influence of Legally Blonde's Elle Woods and artist Kathy Acker on Wendy's design.

Analysis

Indigenous identity

Scott describes Wendy as a Trojan Horse, slipping through the consciousness as she presented as a "default, blank, white-girl identity." When asked what would have happened if the character of Winona was created first, Scott expressed that "the minute you engage with something from an Indigenous perspective, people’s walls go up and they automatically assume they won’t relate".

Harbour Mille UFO Sighting

Sighting

The objects were sighted on January 25, 2010, off the southern coast of Newfoundland near the community of Harbour Mille. Darlene Stewart, one of the witnesses, was photographing the sunset and observed several objects flying overhead. She took a photograph of one of the objects and enhanced the photograph using her computer. The photographs taken by Stewart showed a blurry image of a missile-like object emitting flames or heavy smoke. Stewart called her neighbour, Emmy Pardy, who, along with Stewart's husband allegedly observed three similar objects flying through the air minutes apart from one another having moved silently through the air. One object was described as up close and the other two were farther off in the distance. Pardy described the objects as having "appeared to come out of the ocean ... in the middle of the bay."

A Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer was in the community on January 26 to investigate the reports of sightings by the residents. Sargeant Wayne Edgecombe speaking with CBC News that they had "confirmed it was something" and was "nothing criminal." Harbour Mille residents were initially informed that the missiles had been test missiles launched by France off Saint Pierre and Miquelon, the rumor was later disproven by Sgt. Edgecombe.

The RCMP on January 27 directed questions regarding the objects to Public Safety Canada, which requested that questions be directed to the RCMP. The department would, on January 28, request that questions regarding the objects be directed to the Prime Minister's Office.

Government reaction

The French Ministry of Armed Forces posted a message on its site confirming that a missile was launched from a submarine earlier in the week but that the time and direction did not match with the objects allegedly sighted over Newfoundland. A spokesperson for the Canadian Armed Forces, Major Jason Proulx, stated that there was "no threat to the security of Canada" and that the department was aware of the reports and there was no planned exercises in the area.

Member of Parliament for Humber—St. Barbe—Baie Verte Gerry Byrne demanded the federal Conservative government for answers regarding the sighting, stating that there was a "credible body of evidence that suggests there's something spectacular happened off of our shore." Byrne stated his interest in demanding the ministers for national defence, transport, and public safety for answers and criticizing the federal government for having prorogued parliament leaving him unable to question the ministers in the House of Commons. Byrne expressed his concerns for potential risks to health and safety as a result of the object, and that the event was "cloaked in relative secrecy." The relative secrecy as a result of the alleged sighting prompted Byrne to criticize the government further on January 28, stating that the events were "not making any sense and nobody's providing any real answers, so questions are mounting."

Dimitri Soudas, spokesperson for Prime Minister Stephen Harper, stated that "there is no indication that there was ever a rocket launch" in response to the sighting.

Skeptical reaction

Official investigation

“ There are no distinguishing features on the object to use for identification … the shape of the flame is atypical of a missile launch
The length of the flame is greater than that of the rocket body. This eliminates the possibility that it is a cruise missile jet engine exhaust ” — Department of National Defence's Directorate of Scientific and Technical Intelligence ,

According to documents by the Department of National Defence obtained by CBC News, the objects in the photographs were ruled out as ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, or as rockets. The objects had allegedly appeared to witnesses as having come out of the water, with only ballistic and cruise missiles having the capability to be launched from a submarine. Arms experts from the DND report stated that the objects photographed did not match the profile of those weapons. The documents also stated that neither North American Aerospace Defence Command nor Canada Command had evidence to support the sighting. There was no recorded Royal Canadian Navy ships involved, and there were no Canadian Armed Forces missile exercises at the time. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, which conducted a separate investigation on the objects, dubbed the event an "unexplained sighting".

Michaela Dietz as Dottie

Plot

Tuca (Tiffany Haddish) and Bertie Ali Wong are at the airport at the invitation of Dottie (Michaela Dietz), Speckle's sister, for her bachelorette party. Tuca, who has stopped drinking, is worried she would come off as weird for not drinking, so Bertie promises to go along with her and forgo drinking for the night and be her "sober wingwoman" while Tuca promised to be Bertie's "social lubricant". The two meet up with Dottie's friends who are drinking at the airport bar.

The two are in the plane and go over what they have packed, as well as their plans for the trip. The group crosses paths with Speckle's (Steven Yeun) group. As the plane takes off, Bertie reads a book about Planteau's unique ecosystem. A closed community where tourists must be disinfected and where the local plants are potentially toxic. As she finishes, Bertie finds herself along with the other bachelorettes inside the hotel. As they head out, the camera cuts to Speckle's bachelor group who are planning a heist for a cutting of a rare plant called a "scarlet headcup" housed in the Planteau Cultural Museum for the purposes of selling it to a plant smuggler to pay off the debts incurred by the wedding. Speckle is briefly confused, but goes along with the plan.

The women's group is at a strip club with dancing anthropomorphic tomatoes as the strippers. Dottie, at the stripper's invitation, comes on stage and bites a chunk out of his body. Bertie, overexcited, starts to eagerly cheer at the stage, causing discomfort. Bertie talks to Tuca about how she struggles to socialize without alcohol, but turns down Tuca's invitation to drink despite their agreement. The group head to the club's roof, which is an outdoor pool. As Tuca enjoys her time in the pool fraternizing with the other bachelorettes, Bertie struggles to talk to Dottie.

The men's group heads to the Planteau Cultural Museum and takes the cutting. Speckle is shocked by the revelation that the scarlet headcup is in fact the Mayor of Planteau, and the Cultural Museum is also revealed to be the city hall. The alarm is accidentally triggered when one of the bachelors eats a bug off the floor, and the men hide among the museum exhibits but eventually flee. The women, meanwhile, go to a variety of events but Bertie continues to struggle socially as Tuca entertains the group. Bertie, at the nightclub, takes a sip of alcohol to help her socialize and goes on to repeatedly drink more and more. Speckle, coming across Bertie's group, runs to her and tries to explain what had happened but Bertie drunkenly shrugs him off.

The group take a rest stop at a bar, after some teasing by the bachelorettes, Bertie continues to feel ostracized. She silently takes a drink from one of the bachelorettes who she thought was sleeping, but she wakes up and cheers Bertie on, causing Tuca to notice Bertie drinking. The camera cuts to the bachelors, who ask Speckle for the plant cutting. The cutting shoots a chemical at Speckle, which causes him to hallucinate. Speckle in a daze, runs out of the building, with his brother in law hanging his head in shame for being a bad brother in law.

Tuca walks out of the bar after having found Bertie broke their promise. Tuca confronts Bertie on breaking the promise after having given her the option to not stay sober for her sake and then promptly lying to Tuca. The two are in the middle of an arguement when one of the flora robs the two at gunpoint, taking Bertie's bag. It reaches for Tuca's bag but Bertie refuses, pulling it back as the plant walks away. Speckle runs away from the smuggler in a hallucinogen induced haze and into a strip club. One of the strippers, a fuchsia bush, eats the smuggler as Speckle congratulates him. The camera returns to the bachelorette group, talking to two dog police officers who prove to be incompetent. Speckle returns the cutting to the mayor who thanks Speckle for returning his daughter to him, to reward him the mayor sprays Speckle again, giving him a deep hallucinogenic high.

As morning arrives the bachelorettes turn down the plans for the day after the mugging. The group asks for a chill day, causing the party planner, Reese, to break down. Bertie comforts Reese and the group watches pizza while watching movies. Tuca and Bertie talk in the other room over the previous night's events and the two reconcile. The group are in the airplane when they come across Speckle, still feeling the effects of the high, tells Bertie her brother in law is a criminal, which she brushes aside. Dottie tells Bertie that she feels like Bertie is her cool little sister, and complains about Speckle's previous girlfriends, who appeared to be more capable than Bertie, causing her to panic.

Production

The locale of Planteau was designed by the series' art director Allison Dubois. According to Hanawalt, Planteau was inspired by New Orleans, a place where Hanawalt was mugged at gunpoint while on a bachelorette trip with a friend, as well as Hong Kong. The episode itself was largely inspired by Jeff VanderMeer's Annihilation, which Hanawalt stated was one of her favorite books, describing the feeling of everything being poisonous in the city of Planteau.

Reception

Critical reception

Charles Pulliam-Moore writing in Gizmodo described the dynamic shown in the episode as "distinctly like a story shaped by how the past year has strained many people’s friendships" and speculated on how Tuca and Bertie's relationship would progress as the season continued. Molly Catherine Turner writing in Culturess praised Steven Yeun's voice acting in the episode and Speckle's storyline, highlighting that the segment let "Lisa Hanawalt’s trippier animation style shine through". During his review of the second season, Ben Travers writing in IndieWire stated that Hanawalt showed "great awareness using [Speckle] as overt, over-the-top comic relief" during a storyline that had the A-Plot focus on both Tuca and Bertie.

Accolades

The episode was nominated for, and would win, the Writers Guild of America Award for Television: Animation during the 74th Writers Guild of America Awards. It would also be nominated for the category of Outstanding Achievement for Writing in an Animated Television / Broadcast Production during the 49th Annie Awards, of which it would lose over Arcane's "The Monster You Created".

Silpho saucer

The

Discovery

Allegedly, three men driving by Silpho Moor spotted a glowing object light up in the sky and subsequently crash into the ground. One of the men who were in the car would get up and supposedly found the saucer lying amongst the bushes.

Appearance

The object which had been discovered was a 18 inches (460 mm) long metallic saucer. It was described as a "copper-bottomed flying saucer" by local newspapers. The object was covered in markings described as hieroglyphics, which were written in a unknown script.

Upon prying open the object, additional copper sheets forming a book with 17 pages was discovered. The book found inside the saucer was additionally inscribed with hieroglyphics. A local cafe owner who had claimed he was able to decipher the script and was able to read it claimed that the message was from an alien named "Ullo" who warned of impending atomic war and warned humans that they would "improve or disappear".

Subsequent developments

Portions of the saucer, which had been sliced into smaller pieces for further examination for further study, were rediscovered in 2018 among the collections of Charles Harvard Gibbs-Smith.
