Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for April 02, 2012
Transcript:
Rip: OK, Poi. Let my friends live and I'll (gulp!) submit to your gross desires. Captain: Ah, sacrifice! Young man, you deserve the highest honor. Cozying up to that pirate floozy would be a yucky fate indeed. But it won't be yours - hands up Poi, I'm the chief of police! Poi: Oh, crud! Captain: Do you want me to list all the offenses now? Poi: I can list your offense, Copper! It's ruining my moment!

Aw, c’mon, Steven, hasn’t Rip suffered enough with his slave-boy treatment and the threat of “gross desires”? Anyway, as far as I’m concerned, this storyline ain’t over till the fat captain sings! :-)

It’s the beginning of the week. A true deux ex machina would come at the end of the week.

I’d cheerfully submit to her gross desires whether she let my friends live or not – no contest.
