He ended up spending his time dashing around questioning suspects and searching for clues rather than burning to a crisp and wearing straw hats daubed with amusing slogans as he should have been.

      My guess on that line is that it's about addiction, the cartwheel of scratches referring to the recreational (or playful) self destruction illustrated by trackmarks, with the tapeworm being the externalized form of addiction (or something to be fed) The amoeba lands craft, it's a bit out there but wouldn't that encompass the totality of evolution from single celled organisms to space faring civilizations? Maybe, maybe not.
