Transcript:
Alice: Did Petey really find circus people camping in his schoolyard? Mom: That's what he says. Alice: Wow. We found a ring of toadstools in the field at Blisshaven but no circus people yet. Mom: Dill didn't eat the toadstools, did he? Alice: No, Miss Bliss is too fast for him.

Is there a connection between the circus people and the toadstools?

So, Madeline is aware of Dill’s Picky Eater [non-]Rating! It’s a good thing Miss Bliss was quick and a funny thing the way Alice delivers that line (panel 4) as a throw-away.

Dill is already surreal enough without psilocybin enhancement.
Elaine Rosco Premium Member about 13 years ago
At least Alice knows not to eat toadstools.

Fortunately. Alice probably would have told him to eat them.

That’s right, don’t eat the mushrooms… Or join the fairies in a dance around them, unless you have a few years of time to kill.

When I’m around toadstools, I see lepercauns and pixies under them.

Miss Bliss was quick enough THIS time…but what about the ne+t?
fritzoid Premium Member about 13 years ago
That was really mean of Miss Bliss to eat all the toadstools herself, before Dill had a chance.
William Bednar Premium Member about 13 years ago
