Haha, I had to look at the other comments to figure out that 'baber' meant 'paper' as well. Honestly, though... paper doesn't bruise or bleed, or possibly get a concussion. So uh... careful, Ken!
The only reason people think paper is weak is because it's usually thinner than Anna's hesitation towards violence. Collect it up into something the thickness of an old timey phone book and that's a dangerous object that can cause serious injury if you drop it on someone's foot, and it can take a lot of superficial punishment before you do any significant damage to it. Or just keep it in the shape of a tree log and use it as a caber, which may be even more dangerous if handled well... or badly.
I expect nothing smarter from Jon. His whole life he's defined himself as the smart one in comparison to Seth, and he doesn't even manage that all of the time. Come to think of it, how smart would he have turned out if he'd tried to be the smart one in comparison to the late Stephen Hawking instead?
Sounds like in Anna's mind, it happened kinda like this...
Also, "baber" is pretty much the only word in Ken's entire monologue that *I* don't understand...
A squirrel.
THERE I SAID IT.
