Transcript:
Breezy: Rip, I've got to leave, but you don't have to stay. You could come with me! Rip Haywire: Breezy, y-you're a great girl... but I'll be honest... this love junk creeps me out! If I went with you... it would mean... commitment, settling down... I might have to put my knuckles on the shelf! Breezy: Would that be so bad? Rip Haywire: Would you ask a porcupine to remove it's needles? Breezy: It'd be eaten by a coyote in no time!

I see where this might be going! They could get engaged, and Rip would meet Breezy’s mom, a whacky new regular character. After lots of hype about Breezy’s wedding gown, they’d get married and a bit later the strip would move to a different outlet. They’d have triplets which would be seen a couple times then forgotten. Then the strip would be cancelled, but would reappear in later years in several horrible revised versions, and finally after several decades, one decent one.

Also, Rip would have to constantly visit his dad every Christmas.

Sad. He “married” Cobra and it worked fine… Breezy isn’t exactly afraid of adventure :)

It’s ‘Quills’, not ‘needles’, but I suppose the dog’s nose doesn’t know the difference…

Rip should be afraid of being eaten by a cougar, after all, he’s involved with two of them!

It’s Rip and Cobra forever. Breezy is history.

Are you thinking of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service perchance? George Lazenby’s only outing as 007

I’ve got a BETTER Idea – Breezy moves Stateside; Rip follows her, discovers that the “ranch” is a smuggling operation of SOME kind, busts that up, she loses her job but gets to keep the chopper, somehow. They go into an “Anytime, Anywhere”-style merc business together and marry – and then, COBRA contracts with them as an independent operator…Difficulties ensue. Of course.
