Story so far
Frank Q first surfaces as the crawler who shot and looted Rebecca W, taking everything but an apple core, prompting Carl to vow vengeance. Confronted in a Safe Room, Frank and partner Maggie My spun a story about being ICE agents who chased a suspect into the dungeon, but Carl caught the lies and they were frozen the instant they fired their guns, breaking the no-violence rule. Their fate after Carl's trap was left unknown to Carl.
By chapter 45, Frank's married-man backstory is exposed as fabricated, and he is seen having lost his right hand to Carl's dynamite trap, leaving a clean mannequin-like cut. He is now traumatized and silent, staring with a hollowed-out thousand-yard gaze.
