Retrospec has a history of relying on its users to complete tasks for them. My suspicions aren't unfounded, you know. They get tied up easily. Do we know if any of their members are even real? Without an office building, they very well might not even be part of this plane of reality.
I don't think it's as simple as Zee working for or against them. I might have before, but twisted situations like this don't just arise over nothing.
Joanne. I helped rescue her from an unreality twist, back in July. Brought her back here with everybody, she was in the same physical place as me.
If Maurice isn't real? That's a damn hard commitment to a con if he's not real. I saw where he lives, inside Retrospec headquarters. All the little personal touches around the place. He's working on playing chess, likes science fiction, studies math.
[Has a massive figurine collection but Togusa's not gonna drag him for that one.]
My theory was more of a mistake than an intentional going against. That what Zee is attempting is going to do something he doesn't expect, but it's too late for Retrospec to tell him because he's gone. Incompetence and mistakes is usually an easy bet with Retrospec, too.
