Hmm... is it too early in the morning for the plot to thicken for these critters?
In the first chapter, everyone was pretty much empathizing with Cory, who has the real problem, and I was worried that he was almost upstaging Norm. So in this second one, it is Norm who has the problem, and we see a glimpse into his blurry, but still understandable, past.
And I know all about it and yo-ou do-on't!
Seriously, though, this is going to be a bit more serious.
