Wow. When did Apartment 3-G turn into a David Lynch movie? Suddenly they're in a completely different room, with a random nurse (who is NOT wearing her old timey cap, the horror!) who insists on some "breathing treatment." Margo just sits there, strangely, silently. Her "mama" flies at her from the background, before stopping short. Martin makes an obscure comment about breakfast. Does he expect Gabriella to make it for them? Does he expect her to watch? And in the background, a shirtless midget in body paint juggles fire. ....Okay, not that last part, but I have a feeling that's just because Mr. Bolle had trouble drawing it.

Good luck finding a breakfast joint open on Christmas Day, guys.
Ari? Who's Ari?
NonnyMus: Lu Ann's about to call to check up on Ari again. she will be sorely disappointed...
Ha! Yeah, Tommie has definitely stopped taking Lu Ann's calls at this point.
The New Gabriella is a million times worse than New Coke.
How long has it been - decades??? Since there was a comics reader campaign?
Bring back Gabriella!
Greg punches Martin in the stomach; as Martin doubles over in pain, Greg says, "Sorry Felix, but you were about to call me 007."
Can't I stay?
Cannot I stay?
Can not I stay?
Does this bother anybody else? Am I alone in this question being the worst part of Friday's strip? Or is this an attempt at Hispanic lingo?
Either way, I'm offended. But more so by the poor grammar.
Whoa, Ken! Wa-a-a-a-a-ay overthinking it. "Can't I..." is a common construction in English, one of the many which make no sense if dissected but are perfectly proper usage.
If I were you, I'd think about how Martin said, "Someone who claims to know Margo..." on Saturday and today he's saying, "It's someone who knows Margo".
What is that 'claims' thing all about?
I way overthink most things. It's what I do. My Gallup strengths concur
I don't need to agree with perfectly proper usage. My life is something of a minefield.
Perhaps "knowing Margo" is being used in the biblical sense. Evan claimed to know Margo but the knowledge has since been verified by the location of an intimate mole. It's not something Martin wants to think about.
Ken, my working theory is that Martin and Greg were in on the bombing so Greg could rescue a 'beautiful' damsel in distress during the fire and thus promote his 007 film. How else could Greg know it was Evan?
Martin was in on the plot because he was secretly hoping something would go wrong and Margo would finally cease darkening his door with her bun and her wagging finger.
Of course, there's always the possibility that Margo was in on it, also, as a 'publicity stunt'. I guess we'll know more when they find the Professor's body.
