Maybe if during the water battle, the sister or mother had been accidentally AR'd to some degree like what happened with the neighbor in Part 2, that might have helped.

I echo this agreement.

The first one was good. The second one in my opinion was better. I buy just about all AR/AP stories from D.T. and I thought this was the story to break the mold. Now... that's not to say it's bad. Just not as good as part 1 & 2.

I've also finally figured out what puts me off about this art. With Bojay when the characters get younger, you can clearly tell it in the face and body. Even in the men. With Luke getting younger his face just doesn't seem to be getting youthful. There's no real pudge to his face. Granted an boy of his age could be slim, but I would expect some baby fat on him. or less defined cheeks and the like.

I also realized something else, based on the way the formula's are working, the mother must have bought gallons of this stuff. They seem to leave this formula/water on all the time. Now I'm merely guessing at this point, since from what I can tell of the squirt cans there is no gauge to decide how much to put in. So 1 drop per gallon could very well mean that has an almost negligible effect. Which if that's the case a direct exposure should more or less kill anyone who touches them. Regressing or aging out of existence. So imagine what this is doing to the other creatures in the area. Dogs, cats squirrels, birds and insects would be interacting with the residue or the run off of these products. Let's assume they don't work with non human DNA. But what about when the stuff evaporates into the air? Unless those chemicals are improperly bonded to the water molecules, which we have to assume they are at least hitching a ride, when they break down and get put into the air and then become rain what happens to the other humans in the area?

Anyway, I guess only part 4 will tell us more. But I'd like to see the effects to the people around them by their recklessness. I mean, they essentially have a biological/chemical weapon that they're releasing into the world with the way they're letting those chemicals run freely.
