200th post recap.

The flood of chapter 1 has receded but Jake's recovery has not begun. Chongo, who may or may not turn out to be the villain of the piece has has an appointment with Jake under the el train tracks.

Somehow word has got out and various and sundry nefarious entities are racing to the appointed place, including a thug in a fedora, to literally and figuratively get a piece of Chongo.

One of them is a famous TV chef who says "Bam!!" to much who wants to make his most elusive creation, pan seared, blackened monkey fingers on the hit food channel/Comedy Central co-production, Iron(ic) Chef.
