Is it the conspiracy that after their group date to the prom, each of the girls will individually relate to Tessi Milton a story about how Vic was a total stud to all the chicks, and from now on they will date only boys who drive Grandpa vans because there’s no other experience that even comes close to it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Doug E. Fresh and the Little Pepperpot conjuring up a foul play at Tessi’s expense. No drenching in pig’s blood after being awarded Prom Queen (Carrie), No Biff Tannen to molest TM in a wacky Doc’s sedan with Vic ambling up to the car telling young Biff to get his damn hands off her (Back to the Future). I’m expecting a devious plan like a Wendy Wiley Flash Mob Production. Yeah, that’ll teach Teezer who’s boss.
Gotta admit that this basketball season plot about Vic and his MC-ing ways didn’t really hold my interest, but now that Doug Guthrie and Corina Karenna, probably two of the top five more interesting characters currently in this strip, are planning to team up and overthrow the government through a series of daring assassinations, I’m back on board!
P1 – Is his “office” the hallway? Because that’s where he’s pointing.
P2 – And that’s where they are. Weird saying to use when you’re going to talk in the busiest place in the school.
P3 – Hmm, this must be some revenge planned against Tessi. Is he going to pretend he wants to date her, which of course she’d be thrilled because he has the coolest car in the school? And then blow her off, like she did to Vic? Maybe, although seems rather egotistical to him thinking she’d be thrilled to date him. (Note I’m already picking apart the logic of something I don’t know is even going to happen.)
And speaking of picking apart, there are plenty of flaws to pick apart in Mopped Up Thorp. And usually you don’t have to look too hard to find them.

D: Other, (Please explain)

A rare thumb gesture in P1, but in P2 we quickly recover the daily finger point; as for P3, that is a unique angle or they are very close talkers!

P1, I’m assuming Doug’s “office” is Mop’s closet. Of course, I’m also assuming that’s Doug. It’s so hard to tell in this strip.
P2, Yeah, sorry you never even sniffed a playoff (Playdown?) berth.
P3, I’m pretty sure Corina is up for that.

P1 Corina, step into my office
Me? I thought you really find me repulsive and off-putting Mr Mopman
P2 Sorry about the playdown game
Don’t be, my hand is healing and now no more visits by Vito’s goons and threats about the point spread anymore
P3 What’s up?
Give me your good hand and I will show you

CK has to be the most inconsistently drawn character besides Mimi

Sorry, Doug. I can handle a conspiracy, just not a devious one.
Now, myself (twainreader) would borrow from Woody Allan and have VD use his MC skills on Prom night when CK signs on to let Dougie boy get lucky
