What Is Novacom Really Up To?
By Jacob Isom


Recently a new company broadened their horizons and moved to the small town of Odyssey. Novacom. Soon they snagged Tom Riley into the deal of selling some of his land so Novacom could build a radio tower. Was this a good action for Tom? Also was deciding to build a second Whit's End a good thing for Mr. Whittaker to do at this important time? And what is RWS? We know that it stands for "Radio Wave Study," but why is it so secretive, and why is Eugene acting so suspicious? Is Eugene a new bad guy in Odyssey?

With the end of the Fall Season 2000 of Adventures in Odyssey came a great new story arc. But there's one thing that has been left out. It's too mysterious! Novacom, in a sudden flash, swept through Odyssey taking citizens with it. Is Novacom the family company they say they are? And if so, why are they playing violent television shows and branching off to questionable topics, such as "Devil in White?"

Arthur Dent is one of the major big wigs at Novacom Broadcasting. To me, he seems like a pawn in the bad guy's hands. The new Bad Guy is using his unaware employees for a different purpose. Does "Mr. X" or whatever his name is want what's best for the kids of Odyssey? Or is the whole Novacom Broadcasting thing a cover up for what the bad guys are after? Why is everything so secretive lately?

Whit seems like the main pawn in this game. Why did some bald guy tell Brianna's brother to break into Whit's office? What could be so important about Whit's End that the bad guy wants? And who is AREM?

AREM showed up first in "Red Herring." Cal and Alex learned the hard way what curiosity can do to you. But that doesn't answer my question. Who is AREM? Could it be possible that Eugene is disguising himself as AREM to let people know what's wrong with Novacom? Or could it also be possible that Mitch (Connie's new boyfriend) is AREM and he knows what's going on behind the scenes?

I pondered on this: What if Dr. Blackgaard is still alive and he's the head of Novacom? But later I heard an episode titled "Breaking Point," and my hopes were shattered.

These questions, and many more, are lurking around the corner. But the main thing is, keep listening. You never know what could happen next.
