Intro (skip if you’ve already read any of the previous intros):
Hello, greetings, casual readers of past Tracy stories. I’m here because I’m on 2 missions. The first is something I’ve never done before, read each Tracy story by Mike Curtis (or his occasional guest writer) in one sitting each. I feel his stories are worth it. IMHO, Curtis is by far the best post-Gould writer this strip has ever had, and we’re all lucky to have him.
My second mission is to provide an immediately useful Featured Comment whenever needed. My 3 friends below will reply to me. You can read their replies if you like, but their only real purpose is to bump up this comment to the Featured Comment.
There are 2 basic types of immediately useful Featured Comments: the first type is to provide you with a Mumblespeak translator when needed. The other type is anytime that day’s strip quotes a real song. I will provide an html to a recording to that song so you’ll know the tune even if you’ve never heard it before.

But this time it’s not for either reason. GC and some papers censored out Fortuna’s black eye, but other papers carried the uncensored version and markwillman4 preserved the uncensored version:

Strike and steal a jittery deal. This guy is always wrong
He lashes out. Shakes all about. Sings a liar’s song.
Sweet Edison has been deceived. Deserves a better man
Cut losers loose. Shake that caboose. Act on a wiser plan.
A buckle to steal did seal the deal. Both liar and a thief
Shall pay a price. It won’t be nice. Behind bars no relief.
“Breathless” she has been abused. Speaks up and says, “Me too!”
Silence can kill. Do not be still. Do what you have to do.
Charges filed. Justice smiled. Look who’s at the door
Crime does not pay. She had her say, and shall be struck no more.

If looks could kill. We have the edited version of the strip here. It looks like the one who bailed Shaky out of jail is about to put him back there.

Now the thing make a little more sense.

Where’s the shiner? [CENSORED]

Harassment? Given it is implied Shaky actually hit her shouldn’t that be assault?

Oh, boy. Censorship.
