So the team is still intact, just without SJ. So who's minding the store I wonder. This just keeps getting weirder and weirder.

Wasn't old Step-on supposed to hang around until all the women and children were on the lifeboats?

I don't get it. Wasn't ATSJ SJ's creation? After one year he's done? Somewhat strange they make this announcment without further details on the team, such as who is the director now.
