I may have deleted some of this thread without reading it.  Maybe I'm
missing something, but there is some evidence that Brock is drugging
Frenesi (242.26-34). 

We know that she resists being turned in any one direction for long. 

His Campus is for kids. No PREPing Frenesi. To keep her working for him,
he'll need more than a cock and a gun and a uniform. 

And we know that Brock singles Frenesi out, not for those long legs and
blue eyes, or even for her Lefty ancestry, but because his special gift
for understanding Frenesi's generation  tells him that she is a special
one. His pseudoscientific criminology tells him that she doesn't fit
into the Lambroso's groupings for revolutionaries. And his experiences
with her tells him, much as she may crave his penis,  that anything
short of torture won't keep her locked up. DL may have made the bitch do
things Brock never could, Weed's jack-hammer may have cracked her smile
for a little while, Brock's gun may have forced her head down into
fetishistic fantasy, by Freneticism is not ready to grow up just yet ...
forever free, forever young, forever wild.
