Panel 1: As we get a thirty-second snippet of the game each day, the current over-under on the completion of this game is July, 2013.
Panel 2: Meanwhile, Cassie realizes doing a load of laundry will ease the pain of her difficult situation.
Panel 3: Wow, coming from a drop-out janitor, that’s a pretty dickish comment, Steve. Wait a sec…holy crap, there’s gonna be a threesome! (Seriously though…”You want hard? You got it.”? What kind of writing is that? Intended entendre? Or not? You decide. )

I think there’s a reason Ray is mostly off-panel here. He’s already dropped trou. You can tell from the look on Cassie’s face.

Cassie appears to be getting some lingerie out of her suitcase. Is it for her or Steve.

I think it’s adorable how Cassie is apologizing for leading Steve on. She really thinks he was attracted to her, when in fact she only made him head-bobblingly uncomfortable and he reported her to the coach! What a cute kid. She definitely should not get married, nor get involved in whatever is about to go down here (fisticuffs? threesome? fisticuffs leading to threesome? sadly, all the good action is going to happen off-screen, again).
Also, I’m still dying to know what that note Steve found in her backpack said. “Dear Steve: In case you rifle thru my backpack looking for clues, I’m running off to Vegas to marry the pizza-flipper of my dreams. CUL8R!”

“I’m sorry I led you on, but we needed everyone to forget about Ray.”
Well, there’s our explanation. I guess they were going to fly to Vegas under assumed names.
This was monumentally stupid from the get go, so it’s my bad for expecting something coherent to wrap this story up.
Steve’s probably not even going to get a cathartic beat down after being forced to slip into Cassie’s lingerie. I’m sure he has some martial arts training that will humiliate Ray yada yada yada.

Steve has been told to leave, although not in exactly formal legal language. He will now demonstrate incredible martial arts skills. Ray won’t be hurt much, but will be so embarrassed that he won’t press any legal charges.
Also, Ray is wanted for something. I hope Steve is, too (but Gil will be able to get him off [I mean the charges. Preeverts.])

Great choices for Cassie, Ray the pizza flipper who lives in a dump or Steve the janitor who lives in his car. Both guys are losers because Cassie is just using Ray’s money to get to Vegas, become a stripper, and move on to become a star in a Vegas show. I have a great name for this future plot…

You owe me a coke, dale.
As far as Ray being wanted, perhaps in the tussle with Steve, Ray’s steamer trunk will burst open and Nutboys will spill all over the floor.
Wah wah wah.

Watch out, Steve! Ray is going to use his 6-fingered/knuckled left hand to launch his “fists of fury”/”six fingers of death” attack! I hope you minored in self-defense at State!

I’m looking for a threesome that includes fisting.
But Ray, it’s usually polite to take off your watch before. Or at least offer to.

If you make a tight fist and crank your arm around until it hurts (like many strange GT poses), you’ll see that it isn’t a sixth finger. However, if Ray knew how to make a decent fist, he wouldn’t have his thumb where it is.

kaz will run into the room any minute and yell EASE UP FLIPPER AND FLOOR MOPPER

You want a Nutboy ? You got it.
Comment by blondie — March 26, 2010 @ 8:50 pm
Ray (with his fist o’ justice) is Mark Trail’s cousin/nephew/illegitimate son! Who knew?

Does Cassie’s aunt have man hands?
Comment by Gray — March 27, 2010 @ 6:48 am
Damn, everyone beat me to all the good stuff…anyway in today’s strip, Steve knocks the squint right out of Ray’s eyes.

A lesson for all gentlemen in their 20s who have experienced a teenage girl coming on to you. She’s using you. Been there, done that.
