u/TheUtilitaria [+1] (a minute later)

Now everything's a little upside down

As a matter of fact the wheels have stopped

What's good is bad, what's bad is good

You'll find out when you reach the top

- Bob Dylan, Idiot Wind

We get some interesting discussion of prisoner's dilemmas and naturalistic metaethics in this one. Also, there's at least three references to other pieces of rational fiction that you might be able to spot. This is a crucial chapter so any feedback or comments would be very helpful. You can catch up on Corbin's story here, with chapter fifteen.
