Panels 2 and 3 really show Lucy’s true nature: “Here’s the world famous skater performing in the ICE SHOW-HA!!! NOT!!! (thereby causing Snoopy to somersault off his doghouse.) Even though Snoopy had shown her his double axel earlier, seems he might as well have impressed her even more with a FIGURE EIGHT, to prove himself a worthwhile skating partner. That is of course, until he found out at the last minute he and Lucy were going to be performing in front of “real people” and chickened out.
