Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 18, 2016

“sob Oh, Master … sob I thought I was your shower buddy … sob … now you’re gonna give it up to the COACH? … sob”

Not only a first, but probably grounds for an appeal, I would think. But maybe I’ve seen too many TV lawyers.

Damn. It must hurt to be picked up by the nipples.

“I’ve been at this awhile, but going to most of the games would be a first.”

Well, it was nice to see HooDad back for a brief visit yesterday. I was beginning to think he was being held hostage along with the coaches.

Have we ever had a hat trick, where all 3 of the coaches appeared in the strip on the same day? Certainly not recently. Last football season maybe?

Kaz seems amused at this situation, of course if this was somewhere close to this century, BKB would likely be suspended from the team and school for hazing. And where is Gil? With Mimi, making Pedro jealous.

At the very least I’d like to see BKB jamb Young Master Bader into one of the lockers.

A final thought: Could Young Master Bader be smarter than Del’s lawyer? This little outburst might just cause Hangin’ Hiatt to recuse herself. That would mean Young Master Bader helped his dad “get off.”

Looks like all the rats are comming home to nest!Keri

P3 – Glad to see the Thorps can find humor in all this!

In all reality , will there be a message delivered to team about the consequences of D WI driving or will Gil and Kaz just laugh this incident off ?

My guess is that Barry will try to provoke Ken into hitting him, thus forcing Judge ’Hang ’Em" Hiatt to recuse herself in favor of the Honorable Wendell “Wobbles” McWorley, a veteran judge and longtime drinking buddy of Marty Moon

Cameos by Gil, Mimi and Kaz, check. Kaz’s Zeus sized hand makes the kids seem like action figures. We fans haven’t had parents pitted against each other since the infamous Speedco Slip from 2 or 3 years ago involving the Jarboe’s and Foley’s.

I hope Gil isn’t using some kind of Gil/Mimi code talk for body parts there in P3.

tcar—alien tractor beams clearly visible in P1 and P3!

It’s almost like they forgot to draw a wine glass in Gil’s hands in P3.

Was Kaz hiding in a locker or something? If he just walked in he wouldn’t have heard Barry blathering about the DUI. And why is he wearing a jacket and tie?

Awesome how HooDad started the missing coaches count and the next day they all show up. Maybe Rubham read the comments and FedEx’d a replacement strip to the syndicate for today. And speaking of replacements, there is no replacement for reading today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

P-3: @MUT-From the way Gil’s holding his hand and the “I’ve been at this a long time”, I think we know who “coaches” Master B.

Or maybe Scott Bakula in the “GREATEST AMERICAN HERO”.

Kaz….Roadhouse
