Transcript:
Lupin: Elvis has put in the bedroom and that can mean only one thing... Lupin: Company! Book Store Woman: ... I've been thinking about Beatrix since my last visit. Woman: She's great, right? Beatrix: Hi! Puck: Puck here, live from under the table. Lupin: I've gone invisible to get closer to the story! Book Store Woman: I need a book store cat. Duties include greeting guests, overseeing day to day operations and light rodent security. What do you say? are you up for it? Beatrix: A full time position? IN THIS ECONOMY?! Beatrix: And I'm already acquainted with the local rodent criminal masterminds! Book Store Woman: Are you sure? Woman: Yeah... We're only supposed to have two cats in this apartment as it is. We had to get special permission for Lupin. (SNAP, CRASH) Woman: And Lupin's like owning five cats. Lupin: WHAT HAPPENED? Book Store Woman: Well... She won't be far! And I'd still need you to watch when I go out of town? Woman: It's a deal! I'll call our friend at Quinn Shelter to make it official! Book Store Woman: Pending Trevor agrees, of course. Elvis: Elvis, live from the bedroom where I am typing an excellent letter of recommendation... Elvis: But the inferior screen keeps going blurry.

Dear Sweet Elvis, dry your tears sweetie, she isn’t far away. Maybe the Woman will take you guys to visit.

Invisible Lupin is the best thing ever :D but oh, those inferior screens sniffle curse them for being so blurry

What happened, Lupin, is that you weigh five times as much as normal when you’re invisible.

I’ll bet a lot of people reading today’s strip are having problems with blurry screens right now.

Elvis is an old softy but Bea is really excited about permanent employment! Invisible Lupin is like having 5 cats! Great plot continues to unfold. All the different cats all combining for their spots as correspondents in BCN!

Aww. Elvis puts on a tough act, but we all know he’s a real softie. Think we’ll see Bea again? I may cry if we don’t.

Notice the symbol on the woman’s coffee cup in panel 3?
psharon36 over 8 years ago
I did not notice, so I looked again. My inferior screen was going blurry as I googled Ziggy Stardust’s lightening bolt; recognized Prince’s symbol (on panel 3 coffee cups). Wonderful tribute Georgia, to two stars too quickly gone.

One of my favorites.

Oh, Elvis! It is the job of those of us with little ones to raise them up so they can leave. You know there was no holding Bea down; she hit the ground running. And, I mean, it’s a BOOK STORE!! Does it GET any better??
dogday Premium Member over 8 years ago
With Bea’s manners, Trevor will have NO problem.
Ricky Bennett over 8 years ago
Please please PLEASE do more invisible Lupins! I love it! The best BCN comic ever was when Lupin hid in the sink!

Poor Elvis in last panel. I believe he’ll really miss Beatrix

Heh… I live in a trailer park and am technically only supposed to have two cats myself, but since all three of my cats were rescued feral cats that had already been in the park (and have now been neutered so they are no longer capable of adding to the feral population), the management won’t say anything about it.

Ah, sweetie – you will see her on visits! Love these cats

Bea will sell a million books. People will flock in just to see her cute, little, polydactyl self and leave with a book. I’d go there every day.

Poor poorElvis. He has such a soft spot for little girl critters. He will be sad for awhile I’m sure.Lupin could almost be passed off as a bunny. As long as he doesn’t get all poofy. Never thought Lupin would be considered a handful. He seems very sensible usually.

Beatrix walks into a bar and says, “I’d like a glass of. . . . . . . . . . . . Chardonnay, please.” The bartender says, “What’s with the big pause?”

“And Lupin’s like owning five cats” — HA! I bet he is.

And thus “the inferior screen keeps going blurry” becomes part of the BCN lexicon of frequently used quotes.

Beatrix will be missed, but clearly she was so good at everything that she overshadowed everyone else, her destiny lies elsewhere…
