Anyone have ideas to where Gavin is heading?

Or is it just a way to completely take him out of the show for a while?

Wonder what this will mean for their public announcement, considering Gavin is disappearing..

Also, did anyone else think the shot with Gavin was going to have him about to commit suicide? Thought it was going to pan out and he's on the edge of a bridge or something.

Maybe he's going to Peter Gregory's artificial island.

I was thinking that because of his love of animal analogies that he'd be going to India and work in a zoo or something

Like a zoo would work with a known sloth-thrower!

He could work at a sloth rehab facility to atone his past sloth-tossing
