    Drive the van. Fulfill the plan. Meteorite awaits

    Spotted by a passing drone. Unkind the fickle fates.

    Elegant be the fragrances. These two cause a stink

    Crawling through the sewer they are not inclined to think

    Tracy and Sam are on the case. Success so temporary

    Grabbing up the meteorite, Yeti remains contrary.

    No guards attack. Now double back exactly as they came

    Exit stage right. Timing so tight. Museum theft not a game.

    One false move could end the groove, unravel Yeti’s plan

    Hold tight your nose. That ain’t no rose. Get back to the van.

    Well that went pretty smoothly – it will get rougher once the theft is discovered…

    Hmm. Planning to leave Daisy behind (to be caught and take the fall)?

    To date, Tracy and company still do not know the existence of Yeti. Could be a good plan, after all.

    Good morning™, everyone!

    Well, it’s very convenient that the display is right next to the machine room. I can’t help thinking about the scene from my favourite movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark:

    “Throw me the idol and I’ll throw you the whip!”

    The main difference is that there is no bottomless pit in the museum.

    Very cool exhibit!! The million-dollar space rock must be from The Dark Side Of The Moon and there’s a whole “Laser Floyd” light & sound show to accompany it. Hey, Wichita… are there secret messages revealed if we read the story backward??

    Why would the invisible infrared beams show up in the dark? Myth Busters did an episode on this, and all modern optical sensor systems are too sensitive to let intruders blow powders or flour in the air to get the beams to show up.

    Daisy, the dapper dresser even when sneaking around, reminds me a lot of Alfred the butler.

    WOW ! Just great images again today . The look on Daisy’s face is telling me that he isn’t so confident in his partner’s friendship with him any more . Beware of the one that brought you .

    Daisy apparently stopped to don a fresh flower before going in, because he wasn’t wearing one on Wednesday. No wonder Yeti kept sniping at him for lagging!

    How did they see the photoelectric alarms? The artist was kind enough to draw them for us, the readers. If they were visible and that easy to step over they are totally worthless as an alarm system (and would Yeti have needed to suggest ‘step over them’ if they were really that easy to see/avoid?). If they are not visible, and simply shown for our benefit, we can believe that Yet’s glasses give him information on the location – but how could he expect Daisy to see them without giving him glasses with the same power?

    OH NO! They accidentally grabbed the first potato ever grown in Idaho! I guess it must be valuable too given all the protections around it.

    Fun fact: Idaho got its name from a very vocal lady of the evening who plied her trade on what was to become the state border by shouting to every male passerby: I DA HO!

    Next week! Are those conga dancing gerbils? And why are the aliens preparing to unleash their fearsome gravy lumpalizer now? WILL Tracy prevail? CAN Tracy save the city? WHY…oh,sorry. That’s the wrong script. Never mind.

    Maybe it’s kryptonite and they’re expecting Superman.

    I have to wonder if Yeti knows that Daisy took his poison dart gun without permission, and plans to eliminate him as soon as his usefulness is ended.

    Apologies, gang. I just looked at the b/w proofs, and the Yeti storyline ends on 12/05.

    I suggest you get through that hatch before completing handoff of the meteorite to Yeti, Daisy, or risk getting shut in, left behind for the cops (who will turn out to be Tracy, almost at once, since he is in, or very near, the museum already). Remember, Sam was directed to drive to the Capp Center Museum, not to follow the perfume van.

    It is not clear to me how Yeti saw the photoelectric (infrared?) security beams, since he has no special glasses (just his usual albino’s sunshades) and seemingly no special smoke/powder/fairy dust to render them visible.

    Good evening™, henchman abandoners !

    I fall in with the dart gun coma proposition and then leaving him to the fates. No murder charges and no one talking and best of all, no one to split the loot with.
