Story Notes

Mission to Montreal is notable for introducing Dr. Martin King (Jon Rolloason), a thinly disguised re-written character of Dr. Keel. The story marks the first of King's three appearances in the series.

gollark: That is an extremely terrible font.
gollark: I mean, there's the issue of... their disregard for human rights? I care about that even if they don't affect other countries too badly directly.
gollark: It works better on philosophers, since you can steal their wallet while they're distracted thinking about it.
gollark: They probably can't/won't eternally torture you, but there's a *possibility* of that infinite harm which is reduced by giving them £100, and if you accept the Pascal's Wager logic you should do that.
gollark: There's actually another similar thing, Pascal's *Mugging*, in which someone comes up to you and says "give me £100 or I will eternally torture you after you die".
