    Subconsciously, Shannon realizes her dad doesn’t really love or care about her. His relationship is perfunctory. That’s why she is so beligerant. Brad is kind, Luann is kind. This is where Shannon feels safe and comfortable. Yeah, I see adoption in the offering. I am looking forward to the wedding.

    Wouldn’t be at all surprised if Brad and Toni wind up raising Shannon once they are married-the question is how it will come about. Perhaps Jonah will do a disappearing act to get his life together or get killed off-who knows? I just get the feeling that Brad will wind up being a major influence in her life-and that’s a good thing!

    Brad confronted Jonah, Toni’s brother, without Toni’s presence, and without Toni’s input. Jonah is Toni’s brother, and Shannon is Jonah’s daughter and Toni’s niece. Brad never should unilaterally have made this offer, and accepted Jonah’s decision.

    Yeah no, Jonah just wanted to go to the party. There would have been a million different ways of diffusing the situation besides leaving and not even greeting Shannon.

    Besides, Brad didn’t drive him away. He looked annoyed and offered to take Shannon for the night. Yeah, he was mad, but I doubt Jonah would have realized it wasn’t just because of his lateness.

    And really, Shannon isn’t that bad. She is a little kid, and I’ve seen brattier little kids. And Brad isn’t an idiot, he wouldn’t have offered to take Shannon for the night if he didn’t think he could tolerate her.

    Yeah. Toni will be very P.O.‘ed about what Brad did, since he shooed away Jonah without her consent. On the other hand, it’s real hard to listen to what others have to say about a relative’s negative behavior; you know, the whole “blood is thicker than water” concept. But sometimes, you need to hear the truth, no matter how unpleasant it is.

    Man even Tiffany does not deserve a guy like this one. She is a selfish and vacuous person, but she is young, and perhaps there is hope, slight though it might be. This guy would be nearly 30 in the real world, and has a needy, beautiful child, but his selfishness is much more serious. But, believe me there will be a major issue coming when Brad and Toni inevitably become more involved in taking c/o Shannon in a parental way, and guess who selfishly will do everything to stop that, and will have the temerity to be jealous of Brad to boot. Oh the cauldron boils hotter and hotter.

    Brad offered Jonah a night off, from parenting to party, Jonah accepted, knowing this is the same situation he’s left his kid in before with good results . . . Where would the drama be in that? If Brad’s tone of voice was matter of fact, which I suspect it would be, there is none. And the kid doesn’t get left alone in a room at a party full of drunken adults. Kind of a win-win here.

    There is one night every year that Shannon can count on and look forward to spending Daddy/daughter time with her father, and — with no concern for or thought of the feelings of Shannon (or Toni for that matter) — Brad unilaterally steps in and denies her of that quality time with her Dad.

    As tragic as it is that Shannon’s dad would rather go to a party than spend time with her, I’m glad he’s not a control freak power play dad who would force her to come against her will. Maybe she’ll actually get a chance at happiness with Brad and Toni.

    Folks – We’re not totally out of the woods yet. I’m thinking that Toni hasn’t seen what happened this morning and just might have an issue or two with what Brad has done. Maybe…

    I honestly think that (for whatever reasons) Toni doesn’t want the responsibility of raising a child, at least right now. She’s needs a break. She needs some time to “regain control” of her life. Brad seems easy enough to let her do that.But with a child, any child, that’s difficult. Brad, OTOH, seems to have boundless energy for that and, specifically for Shannon. Perhaps, he gets off on the fact that Shannon bonded with him so instantly.

    This will have to be one of their first “executive compromise” decisions as a couple. Whatever happens, I hope Shannon rises above it. She does seem to do a lot better when she’s with loving guardians. But I also understand Toni’s position as well. Parenting should be something you do towards the latter end of that cycle. The former part should be all about finding who you are,sewing your oats, playing the field, exploring, traveling, etc. etc.

    Bottom Line: For my own “selfish” reasons, I hope they do adopt Shannon. I like Shannon, and I want to see her in the strip as a new “permanent” character.

    Hey, great scenario for fine (melo)drama! It has it all- – booze & drugs, car crash death, etc. I can really imagine it all happening; it is always heartwarming for newlyweds to adopt an orphan. Your idea would be greater than just having Jonah abandon Shannon to Brad & Toni, before disappearing.

    Where’s Toni? Brad still may be overstepping his bounds. For Toni, she’s not married to Brad yet, so blood is thicker with family.-Does Toni want to adopt Shannon? Maybe she puts up with babysitting, but does she want a permanent situation?-I never experienced it, but a lot of families start with the “baggage” of previous children, relationships, exes, etc. Will Toni and Brad be able to step up?-I admire Brad for doing the gallant thing, but he might have to realize his boundaries also.

    Speculation: If Jonah said “Bring me my daughter” instead of “OK”, what would Brad have done? Where would Toni stand on the issue, and most of important of all, how would Shannon respond? ^ I think that it possibly (not definitely) may go this way: Friday will answer the second question first, when Toni reacts with annoyance, followed by resignation to being “left with Shannon” again (not in the I don’t love her sense, but as in the sense of feeling peeved at both Brad and Jonah for putting her in this) …. the first question, when Brad tries to explain it. may come Saturday, followed by a cold ending having us wonder what will become of this possible spat…. - The Shannon response is probably the key…as someone commented: "What does Shannon really think? Perhaps then Greg may wrap this up a little more neatly this week, or maybe stretch this into next week, to find out…

    Brad didn’t deny Shannon anything, he asked a question, the father made a choice NOT to take his daughter trick or treating. The person who denied Shannon quality time was the scumbag father, and taking the daughter to a adult party and dumping her alone in a bedroom makes him a major scumbag.

    Many people here are saying that Brad “demanded” to take Shannon Trick-or-Treating, and Jonah considered “challenging” Brad, but then he “backed down”. Let’s hope that instead what happened is that Brad “offered” to take Shannon Trick-or-Treating, and Jonah considered “declining” Brad’s kind offer, but then he gratefully “accepted” it instead. That second scenario is just a normal part of everyday life, and it in no way makes Jonah an unfit parent. That first scenario also really doesn’t make Jonah an unfit parent, but it does make Brad a kidnapper. And you people would cheer that???

    > leaving Shannon exposed to the possibility of being sexually molested by a drunken partyer >Note that Shannon said her Dad “always” takes her to this party. Obviously, nothing like this has ever happened there. Jonah is in no way a bad parent because in your wildest imagination you can envision a possible scenario in which she might be imperiled by his actions. Of course, you could also imagine that Brad might also ignore Shannon and let her wander off. In fact, he already did.

    You’re correct, and Twisted Products does own Plotz Devices, which IIRC, stated it on the copy I read from yesterday, but the copy I was given today just had the alternate “speed script”…..

    LOL, That is because I only lease out this company name on the second Tuesday of each week… ^And that explains why it was only the alternate copy, this time….

    Perhaps this is the case of Perspective, Perception and Pont of View? Similar to the “In Through The Out Door” cover concept pitched by Hipgnosis to L.Z….. – Six alternate covers, bearing the scene of six people, each from the point of their view, depending on where they stand… under the brown paper cover, that is… when you got the record at first, you didn’t know what cover you were getting… so, the objective was to get all six covers… – The point being, that similar to ITTOD, maybe Toni, Brad, Jonah and Shannon will each recount what just happened in a way that would be based upon what they each were perceiving, including today’s second panel…. Jonah could interpret it one way, Brad another, etc, and we as the reader are left to perceive that it could have been any of them, but from Greg’s side of the drawing table, the story continues…..

    How do you spell “relief”? – Why don’t you just go to your party – we’ll take care of Shannon

    If B&T have their first true “Lover’s Quarrel” before they tie the knot, it probably will reach the 3-400 numbers that it achieved during the “proposal”….

    I disagree, there… Brad may have felt “love” for her, but I would think that the new Brad would find her to be a mistake… I would think that he would classify her as someone he was strongly in love with, but that he admittedly “got taken to school” with her….

    It looks like Jonah has found “50 ways to leave his loved ones”…… he hopped on the G.U.S., kept his S.T.A.N. electronic organizer, dropped off his Lightweight Elemental Entrancer key devices, and met up with Roy who was bringing a six-pack of “Cold Orange flavored Yogurt” for the party

    I had the first one, also the fifth and sixth one at one time or another… may have also had the same one as you, as well… but never got to have the whole set at one time… and the brown paper bag is probably someone’s book cover by now….

    What?! Why is Brad actively trying to separate this poor child from her father? What a jerk.

    Definitely one of Brad’s finest moments, IMHO.
