The Ballad of Adler Young, Canto 2.5

Not all of the hair in the poppet, come from Adler. A couple of strands, be Fifi's.
Poppet, when finished, have weird effects on the two affected parties. Three, if Scuti Preston is still in control of Fifi.

Adler, note that the Duchess hasn't really answered your automaton question.

Burnside, come up with a cunning plan. The kind that would make a certain fellow named "Baldrick" proud.

I find Salmonella's comment about Lem Junior and the Duchess's right of first night to be highly disturbing...
