    You mean multiple domes, if Sharktooth the private Jaeger is any indication.

    I'm now expecting Vi to pop out of a hidden door just as some villain enters MWAHAHAHAHAHA mode and save the day. I think we're being set up for that - she left following Steelgarter, the dome is full of hidden passages and secret doors, and she's a Smoke Knight (better than everyone expects).

    "Boilergast". Hehehe.
    "Leak or missing snacks or somebody's head explodes" - yeah, those are all equally suspicious.
    I can see how secret passages might complicate a murder investigation, as would a malevolent entity roaming the steam tunnels.

    Now, is Lady Steelgarter about to experience some GG karma, and meet the Boilergast on her way out of the dome?

    I suspect she was knowingly talking to it a couple of pages ago.

    So you guys think Eyeball is the Boilergast? That's interesting, but I'm not sure about the timing. How long have the staff thought the passages haunted? Is this a new thing, or one of those very fine Auld English Traditions?

    The theory seems to be the old favorite "Someone using the legend to cover their activities" that most of us learned from Scooby-Doo episodes.

    "Old access tunnels".

    Given Wooster's expression I get the impression that there IS such a thing as a Boilergast and he has run into one before. Probably in Paris with Gil. If that's accurate it would be another reason to get in contact with Gil.

    In that case, the villain is the second person Agatha and the gang met in the dome. Rakethorn was the first, Lord Shakleford the second.

    By the infallible laws of the cartoon universe, Shakleford is the Boilergast.

    Of course not. We need access to those areas after all :-).

    To be fair, there's a lot of secret stuff that's primarily secret because nobody asks.

    I'd argue that both sorts are "the explody kind".
