lol except Poker Face uses a gimmick where the “detective” has the ability to literally be a human lie detector. Carol Lay does have a point. Every detective now has to have a schtick. Even during the Columbo era there were tv shows about the “fat detective ”, the “blind detective”, the “cowboy detective”, the “paralyzed detective”, the “dead detective”, etc…
I’m very confused by this strip. Is rebuilding the house just a storyline? Or is it the entire story? Will this poor family never have a new home completed or are they doomed forever to be homeless? If it’s the latter, then it all seems a bit cruel.
And it’s gone again today…. Sigh
