The accidental splicing of the genes for both dwarfism and gigantism whch created Detritus have left him with more complexes than a therapist would normally see in a ifetime. A borderline pyschotic who loves small animals and children but will kill on sight anyone involved in the preparation of tofu means that predicability is not his middle name. (That's Susan, given by a whimsical technician at the cloning facility who Detritus tracked down and bludgeoned to death with a book of baby names at age 8.)
