Yes, yes, yes, the timing doesn’t make sense, but read an interview with Lorne Lanning concerning the topic and you’ll see that it was meant to be a very important point that although Abe thought he was doing the right thing in shutting down RuptureFarms, in doing so he actually created another industrial operation exploiting his people. I’m very fond of this jewel of continuity, as it makes a strong point about the character of Abe and how he still has a lot to learn about how to resolve the conflict between nature and consumerism. If the story were to be retold in the two‐part Oddysee and Exoddus form, I would dearly love this to be resolved. However, I don’t think that’s going to happen. The Abe film will present a very different version of the story.
