Eugor would always make fun of Rogue for getting knocked out and also for not putting together several clues that had been in view up to this point in the story.
Interesting detecting technique, though I doubt he could have had a long career without suffering cumulative brain damage. Then again, most fictional detectives of the time seem to have had the ability to take frequent head injuries without any long-term effects. Unlike the police detective in The Dead Sit Round in a Ring, a novel I must go back and finish, who got hit on the ear during a scuffle midway through and looked as though she was probably going to have permanent tintinitus as a result.
