Hy got dis theory about der Gil und Mister Vooster. Hy tink dey both really schtill vants to be friends, but der Gil iz too proud to admit it und Mister Vooster iz too scared. But he got a lot of respect for der Gil, even though he kept gettink him into de hair-raisink adventures like in der second panel. Maybe even partly because of dot. Hy tink Mister Vooster vould rather be terrified than bored.
Und ja, hy got to haff dot vatch! Hy got a schteampunky-lookink vun vot liffs in my pocket (der chain goes nizely through a belt loop), but dot vun vould be vonderful vit der vaistcoat.
Und hy iz really gettink to like Mister Hoffman. He iz veird. In a goot vay.

COUNFOUND IT ALL Samwise Gamgee, have you been eavesdropping?! I ain't been droppin' no eaves, ma'am, honest! I was just practicing my reppelling. I didn't hear nothin' important! That is, I heard a good deal about the Muse of Time, Van Rijn, and somethin' about the black market, but please Miss Agatha, ma'am, don't turn me into anything... unnatural!

Heigh ho, vat a day!
In fact, hy din know vat day it vas. Den hy see de "Gorl Genius haff shared a link!" on de Book Face ting, und hy tink, "Vait, vhich iz dose days dot dey do dot? Hoy! Iz DOT day right now??"
Und hy iz not schmott enoff to figure out de "Prince Krion" reference, eff iz a reference to sumting or iz a pun or sumting else.
All hy know iz, de Mistress' qvestion iz just begging for Hoffman to break out into a song. "Vell, Lady... let me tell hyu vhy ever not, in my own vords..."
Dis iz Paris! Land uv artsy tings!

Honestly I think Gil scaring Wooster had the effect of more or less of flash turning Wooster into a minion of his. (It could be one of the reasons Wooster is avoiding Gil (Split before Zeetha went and found him, didn't go to the Empire after the Time Stop went up) he's not sure of how he will act near him. We don't actually know how the Spark/Minion things works, but it sure feels that way.

De only tings Hy ken find out about Krion iz either a porcelain company or a reference to an old, basically unknown Nintendo game named The Krion Conquest. De second looks more likely, but Hy tink eet iz probably a shout-out to a fan, kickstarter backer, or colleague.

Hy dun tink Mister Vooster iz Gil's minion. Hy tink he iz actually in a very difficult position. He iz haffink to juggle three sets of loyalties. His first loyalty iz of course to Albia, but den dere iz Gil und de Mistress. He iz certainly frightened of der Gil (und who could blame heem?), but vhen push comes to shove he puts de Mistress first. Remember, he vos qvite heppy to spy on der Gil to help de Mistress. Hy tink he iz more loyal to de Mistress than he realises himself. Und dere iz anodder ting. Gil's original orders to Mister Vooster vere to get de Mistress safely to England. Vell, he iz doink dot. But if der Gil saw heem, vot hyu tink he vould say? "Ah, Vooster, de orders iz changed. Hyu must now get her beck to Mechanicsburg." Hy tink Mister Vooster knows dot verra well. Zo, if he makes sure der Gil does not see heem, den he can alvays say he vos yust followink orders.
