Delores: Hi, Banks. Banks: Delores! Did you come to see the baby? Delores: Well, that was the original plan... Banks: Where's Allen? I thought he was coming with you... Delores: Allen... Yeah, he had a bit of a mishap with some hotel shampoo. Banks: He rub it all over his head to see if he was allergic? Delores: So he's done this sort of thing before,then? Banks: Oh, yeah. We've all rubbernecked that train wreck, sister.
Hey ,no need to be so snarky. On Nov 25, Allen and Delores are eating oysters (I assumed raw) at Chuck’s. Allen ends up with a swelling head, due to a new allergy discovered. Think the last panel shows him in a doc’s office. -——-The next day starts the arc with them going to the hospital. Allen seems to have the same bumps as from the shampoo allergy— or did Corey just forget that he’d been exposed to oysters? Dunno. -—So did the progression for the strip go Sat-Sun- Mon (with some inconsistencies) or Sat – Mon – with Sun being a stand alone throwaway? My comment assumed the first choice, though there are arguments for both. Sometimes the purpose of a Sunday strip is clear, sometimes not. In this case, it appears that it’s not.
