When Margaret arrives at the asylum that's about to un-exist, Clara's transparent torso reveals the backward-aging baby with ancient eyes, whose mouth contains the entire flooded town of Millbrook, explaining he'll be born as nothing on Halloween and consume everything in an anti-birth that uncreates creation. / Clara pushes Margaret's transparent arm into her womb where Margaret experiences all future Patterns-2075, 2125, 2175—revealing they never stop, while the tiny Millbrooks in her arm become pregnant with their own deaths.

Ri's Records - episode 9: 26 October 2025: The Best Singer/Songwriter Record Ever Made?: Joni Mitchell's "Blue" [I have an admission to make. Now, before people misunderstand and ask why I don’t own a copy of this, I actually do. However, I think I’ve maybe listened to the album once or twice, and I don’t know why. I own a copy of it on CD, which is in storage somewhere, along with the other more than 3000 albums that I own on CD, which is probably one of the reasons why I don’t listen to it, because it’s in storage. Looks like the rest of my collection, well most of it. of course I know the song river, and I’m sure that if I listened to the album again, I’d probably recognise all of the other songs straight away, but I don’t really remember much about the album at all. The wonder of owning so many CDs, and having a relatively small house to live in.]
