This strip got heavily revised for the publication. As originally posted, the bottom panel was the last row of a three-row page, which we got the first two rows of yesterday. The whole top row, which provides context, is new. The bottom panel was greatly altered, too… there was originally only one each Lottie and Mildew, the ones in the middle doing their Night Creeper impression. Or maybe that’s T. rex, I’m not sure. I don’t recall there being any dinosaurs involved in the case, but maybe I missed them. I have no idea what the rest of their dance is supposed to be conveying, but Shauna’s entertained, and I guess that’s what counts.
Also someone came by and scrubbed off where it said “FIN” on the pavement in the lower right. But nevertheless, this is the end of “The Case of the Unwelcome Visitor”. “The Case of the Forked Road” begins tomorrow. Or possibly 63 years ago.
I don’t see anything in this interpretative dance that represents the clopping of cowboy boots. In Jack’s version of the tale, that was the most memorable part.

I assume this interpretive dance will have to do, since Lottie has probably already accidentally erased the case files on her computer.

From now on, all explanations should be in the form of interpretive dance.

Our younger granddaughter, now 12, has been dancing constantly since shortly after she began to walk.

Even the birds seem entertained.

I love that in the end they are still just a group of young girls who love to have fun.
