I have no idea what Kioke will be saying, but speculating on some sort of pre-emptive move (lock down?) is probably not totally out of the question.

I have seen a suggestion that one way of curbing your desire to head out of the house is to stick a pic of a stern and disapproving looking Kioke inside your door.
