I feel like Wodehouse took the wrong lesson from Ring for Jeeves, and now Jeeves is barely in the books :(
This time we’re not even present when he wraps everything up neat and nice, and not just because sending Bertie away is part of his plan. (Granted I think that also happened in the short stories when he fixes the Rosie M Banks conundrum by convincing Bingo’s uncle that’s he’s insane offscreen, but somehow I didn’t mind that as much. Probably because it results in Bertie visiting the uncle, getting confused by his odd behavior, then having things illuminated by Jeeves. Or maybe because it’s the first time that happened, I don’t know.)


Anyway, seeing Bertie and Roderick be besties was fun. Not a good replacement for Jeeves though.
