      I had feelings that they might build to *some* form of RT3 getting removed from office in the final episode, but a) they were an episode early, and 2) I never expected a MILITARY OVERTHROW (let's be honest - the Nsburg Girl Scouts ARE it's mustered soldiery; they're better organized and regulated than some nations' regular military). I guess with this entire episode involved with the actual deposing, we'll need the next episode to 'clew up loose ends' and re-establish municipal government for Nsburg.
      And what happens NEXT will decide whether this remains just a "coup" (a noun referencing an event; best definition is "a takeover of one group by another"...for now), or becomes a "coup d'etat" (takeover of the established *government*, with replacement of merely the top person/people) or even a "revolution" (overthrow of the whole existing government by a group that forms a different government). If the Girl Scouts put the entire Town Council out of office and replace them with members from their ranks, for example, they would be said to 'form a junta to rule Nsburg' (proper noun for a group: "the ruling council of a military dictatorship")
      In any case, exciting times for Nsburg and obviously more of the same in the future!

    Derek whined about not getting a good story, but "The Pipesmen are betting against Dick Therpston" is actually an extremely big scoop! Powerful supporters abandoning the leader is what makes the difference between a successful coup and a failed one.
