By the Beard of Hobo Tramp Dan

Ohhh...! I've been wondering where this quasi-homeless man story arc was going. Is Hobo Tramp Dan going to scam Aunt Iris? Is he going to wind up being a billionaire who's slumming it up? No no no. Neither of those. Heh. It seems so obvious now. Hobo Tramp Dan is actually the god Zeus, disguised as a penniless vagabond, going from citizen to citizen to see who, if anyone, embodies the Roman ideal of charity! He'll reward those who offer him comfort with an ever-refilling amphora of wine; he'll punish those that dismiss him with death by drowning! Yup. I've read about this before. Just play along, Aunt Iris!

Wow, now my concern is that he'll transform himself into a swan. And then things will get REALLY disturbing.

She's on a first-name basis with a guy she just met, but she calls her date Mister Mallory? I suspect a dom/sub relationship and she calls him Master when they're alone.
