[Wirt doesn't know what's truly worse, not being able to do anything no matter what or having options but not the courage to move forward and take them. This time though, there really isn't anything he can do, but all he can think is that there must have been something he missed when Greg was still in Wonderland, something he could have done if he'd only been paying attention.

The hug feels good though, as does the hand in his hair. It's soothing, and it makes him miss his mom. Does she know they're gone yet? Will only one of her sons make it back to her?]

...Really?

[It's the first anecdote he's heard that's made any kind of sense. If Cami didn't notice any of her friends going missing, then maybe it is true. A thought hits him though and he gasps, and pulls back a bit.]

Beatrice! She's...I-I totally forgot, but she was ahead of me and Greg! It wasn't by much, maybe like a day or so, but she remembered all this stuff that we hadn't been through yet.

[He just sort of brushed it off and forgot about it because it hadn't made any sense at the time. Now that he's been in Wonderland a little longer though...well, he's embarrassed he forgot in the first place, but the significance of it is much clearer.]

If she didn't remember us disappearing, then Greg really did go back to exactly that point!
