It looks like Dana?

I didn’t live all over the world, but I did move around a lot while growing up. Dad was always looking for a better job. I lived in Missouri (born there), Illinois, Indiana, Arkansas, and Texas before I even graduated. After I graduated, we moved to Nebraska, and finally to Michigan. I went to 12 different schools in 12 years. The longest stay was 2 years in Bloomington, IN, and the shortest was 1 semester at a school just outside of Bloomington, IN. I graduated in Missouri. I picked up a nice southern drawl while in Arkansas, but I mostly talk with a midwest accent. Seeing the different states, cities, while growing up was great, but having to pack and move so much was a downer. Oh the stories I could tell…

‘Joe’ might really be Carla.

Carla taking the shape of Nicole?

Whoohoo, didn’t see that coming!

Could Hector possibly be Captain Ruiz’s aforementioned son?

I still wonder how Joe (in uniform so on the clock?) and Marcy (in scrubs so on the clock?) have so much time to hang out and talk at the hospital. . . :)

I love Joe’s expression in the last panel! That is skillful drawing!

I had the same suspicion few days back.

With all these disguises and secret identities, I wonder when Waldo is going to show up.

Right or wrong, there’s no reason to announce your suspicions.

Now…. what would be REALLY shocking….. I mean REALLY……. is….. what if Carla Ruiz is actually disguised as Joe in today’s panels…. and she is either testing how good the disguise is on Marcy, or, unfortunately Marcy is having to unwittingly serve as some sort of “decoy” because the capture is somehow happening at the hospital?!?

A new, interesting, character is about to enter the strip. HOORAY!
