Now, Aristotle, talking about the proper way to construct a Greek tragedy, says that Act III should end with the play's "climax," the point when the hero makes the decision that drives his actions from then on and makes the rest of what happens pretty much inevitable. Or something like that; I read that stuff back in my college days before I decided that the ancient Greeks and Romans were all a buncha bums....

     But I want to be completely honest and "up front" right here at the beginning of Act III: I don't think the "climax" of the HatDance storyline is something that Aristotle would entirely have approved of. You can judge for yourselves, though, here in a couple months when we get to it. Till then, though, please feel free to just enjoy the comix.
