Just get this over with:

page 246:     "and the frame twisted off his face... "

Prairie, DL  and Ditzah are watching this footage on Ditzah's screen  
in the Valley, 1984.   The action switches back and forth from what  
is on the audio and what Ditzah remembers (?) to when Howie finally  
gets the camera going again only to show Weed dead on the cement  
screen and Rex holding the gun in an insane position.

Rex says,  "It should have been you, Frenesi, fuckin' whore, where  
are you?"   (What did he mean?  Rex meant to kill Frenesi? Or she  
should have been the one to kill Weed?  Or what?)

Ditzah and Prairie watch footage of the student riots on campus until  
Prairie says,  "She could get herself killed," Prairie cried.
Yep" said Ditzah and DL together.

And back we go back to the aftermath of the PR3 uprising in 1969.

Very complex.
