SBMWhat I see as 'wonky' is the message from the father quoting the word 'there'.....
"Did you get "there" yet?" seems an odd way to say it.
I see a lot of people misuse quotation marks for emphasis, and I kind of wonder if that's what is happening there. (No pun intended.)
I would have thought he was being snarky, with there in scare quotes since he obviously wasn't where he said he was going, but I think the fact Breyer wasn't even viewing his messages freaked him out and that he was scared when he asked if he was there. I know he said BS had family in Alberta, so I wonder if he had calculated they should have arrived by then and the lack of word was disturbing to him by this point. I'm thinking he was probably assuming an accident.
Still, he was oddly more chill about it than I would have been--instead of demanding to know where he was, just sending casual "Hi" and "send me pics" messages--but I'm kind of high-strung.
