Plot Developments[]
- The dark planet:
- "... is so far away, so desolate, so impossibly, terrifyingly dark".
- One day, we will go there.
- Has sand.
- Is completely and utterly devoid of light.
- Is believed (by Lee Marvin) to smell like "The salt tang of invisible oceans. The bitter sap of ancient forest. I don’t think it smells of rot. I don’t think it smells of fire or of food. I think it smells empty like a home that you lived in for many years but have cleaned out and painted, and are standing in it for the last time and it is once again a stranger to you."
- Lee Marvin continually loops the day of his 30th birthday, with every meal and beginning and end being the exact same.
