Basically lawless. Was surprised they didn't make us pay to live long enough to see the next flight.

Jennies drive me nuts, and my Xatu always makes a face when he sees one (which has caused us way too much trouble on its own). I love them to death and I want one for myself, but they're extreme sticklers for rules. Even the ones in Ecruteak are always chomping at the bit to screw with someone.
