It's been a little longer than Obadiah might have liked since Milliways's last appearance - long enough that the bites on his neck have healed over with shining new scar tissue. They can be mostly hidden with a carefully arranged collar, and he does that during the day, especially at work. His disappearance created enough gossip as it was. No need to provide fresh material.
He's not doing that now, though. He's loosened his tie and tugged down his collar, because here there are certain parties whose reactions he's very interested in.

His money is totally on clone. The only question is whether Tony managed it before or after.
Tony managing to pull a previously unseen twin brother out of his ass and convince the public that his parents just forgot is a depressingly plausible scenario. So, for that matter, is his managing to hide a clone from Howard for God knows how long. He could've raised an army of them in that junk-filled workshop of his and Howard never would've noticed.

"Must be different universes," he says.
He's not entirely convinced of that. But he's still on duty and he should be putting Howard in his cell and going back out front for his shift. He doesn't have time to sort through this until he finds what it is that's setting off his alarms.
He can do that later.

James's stern biology teacher face, conversely, is excellent.
"Are you going to share with the class?"

He looks a hell of a lot like Tony, right there. A hell of a lot.

"You're not much bloody good then, are you?" James says cheerfully. "Never you mind, then, I'll sort it out myself. You've got a jail sentence to carry out."
He gets up to escort Howard to the cells.

God, he misses his son.
