poncho: You don't understand! This is a matter of life and death! Carmen: Oh wait, is your existence being threatened by the cats this time or the vacuum cleaner? Carmen: Chazz and I were just saying how everyone has adjusted so well in this family, but it turns out you're just as selfish as ever! Poncho: That's not true! I'm trying to save someone's life! That's the opposite of selfish! Poncho: I gotta save it before I get in trouble!!

So the fish is in the vacuum cleaner. And why is that, Poncho?

The cats are probably gonna fix Poncho’s mistake and save Fish.

I think Carmen needs to read Marley and Me: Life and Love with the World’s Worst Dog.

These kind of situations drive me crazy, because they only happen in movies/TV/comics: A character has one short sentence of information to impart, but says something like "No, wait, listen to me, I have to tell you this very important thing — " or like here “I’ve gotta save it before I get in trouble!” “[I’m] the opposite of selfish”
In real life, someone would never spend all this time asking to be allowed to say the thing, or talk all around the thing without really saying it. The person would JUST FLAT-OUT SAY THE VERY IMPORTANT THING!
Sheesh, Poncho should just say “Fish is in the vacuum cleaner!!!”

I’ve got to say, Poncho is just becoming an a-hole and isn’t much of a character any longer. Too bad, used to be a funny strip.
