It is always nice when the Giant references a much older strip. In this case, it is Belkar as a gourmet chef, which apparently dates back to the magazine strips and to the siege of Azure city.
He makes a wicked salsa too.

Brilliant!
Somehow the fact that the guard played along tickles me.

500gp is a LOT of cash to a low level NPC. Haley sized her bribe to wow.
…which struck me as rather out of character, given her history and the need (rarely mentioned, but sure to play a role soon) to ransom her father.

I liked the “rescue Roy and then decide what to do about Belkar”.
I interpreted the size of the bribe to indicate just how badly Haley does NOT want to spend any more time with Elan’s father. But maybe I’m just being charitable.

It should be obvious that Elan’s dad intends to steal away/marry Haley.
Also, they had just started discussing their plans to bust Roy out of the ring; paralysis doesn’t stop the person being aware, right? So she had to basically bribe him to kingdom come to keep him quiet.
