WHOA, awesome! Who is THAT? Is that supposed to be a full raincoat, or some kind of angular hoody? Or is it a cloak and this guy is a straight-up comic book villian? In any case, he's looking pretty menacing, and yet Bobbie could care less. I think she assumes anyone wearing a garment with a hood must be a homeless person... probably begging for money to buy booze... booze she could be drinking! Ah Bobbie, you warm my heart right to the very bottom!

Step Aside, Ye Knave!

I'm going to hope that this "figure" is actually a woman... and that it's Gabriella. Fight fight fight! (That Bobbie would totally win, menace that she is.)
I sense a turning point in this storyline!
Maybe it's Martin in disguise as a hooded homeless person so he can take care of "the Bobbie situation" without legal ramifications.
I hope Bobbie doesn't have to be rescued by somebody, I hate the damsel in distress thing. I wonder what kind of self-defense weaponry she carries around with her... Please be a little tiny decorative gun.
A pearl-handled pistol, for sure!
Here's what I don't get, and I'd like someone to explain this to me if they can.
Since when can someone stop a divorce in the 21st century by refusing to sign the papers? It's perfectly possible to divorce your spouse without his or her consent, as long as the parties have lived apart for the required period of time. The only requirement is that the divorce petition has to be properly served on the respondent, or his or her legal representative.
I believe the rules shown in the strip were in force in the 1950s, but in the 21st century I don't know of one jurisdiction, including New York State, where the actual process of divorce can be blocked by one party refusing to sign the papers. (Here in Canada there is nothing to sign, at least on the part of the respondent.)
Charlene-
Given when the strip was started, and the rate at which time passes in the AG-verse, I suspect that these events are occurring in March 1953.
1953 + cell phones. toodle toodle!
